Referencing a drive to conform to a system created by human beings to describe how we can best ask pertinent/correctly formulated questions about our existence as the criteria for personhood is in effect saying that people are people. Nothing wrong with that, and maybe I'm misunderstanding you?
(I'm absolutely fine with that btw, for me personally, the requirement for personhood is that you be a human being, but perhaps I don't put as much value on the concept of personhood, or feel that personhood makes one all that different from a being that is not granted such a title as others.)
I don't exactly understand what you are trying to say here. Can you be more explicit?
