For various reasons I suspect that most objects, of no matter what scale – and whether human or non-human – will pass through roughly a half-dozen symbioses before reaching mature form. This means that, on average, we should be looking for two symbioses belonging to each category of noun, with the symbioses being identifiable by their irreversibility and by their noticeable assistance in helping move the object to a new biographical stage.
