Human DNA has 3.2 billion base pairs, and with 2x the information density compared to binary systems (due to 4-letters as opposed 2), that's roughly 800MB of informational data.

Second, what's even more crazy is that roughly 98% of that DNA is actually non-coding.. just junk.

So, we are talking about encoding entirety of the logic to construct a human body in just around 16MB of data!!!

That's some crazy levels of recursive compression.. maybe it's embedding "varying" parsing logic, mixed with data, along the chain.
