Parasitism has nothing to do with will or even awareness. Technically, our gut bacteria could be considered parasites, no? Yet the best of ours even help the body last longer.
I don’t think so? Just looked up the definition of a parasite and it needs to live at the expense of the host. Gut bacteria are beneficial I assume, so they aren’t parasitic.
Tree trunks are round. At least wooden tables are more likely to desire a circular shape. So corners are likely to be parasitic on wooden tables at least.
You don’t need corners to have a table (it can be round)
But a corner cannot exist without features that form it.
It would only be parasitic if a round table was forced to be square against its desires. If a table wants to be square, the corners are being helpful.

Oh. Well, anyway, awareness has nothing to do with it, at least.
