Okay I don't know where this is going but the other difference is that
even though there are identifiable features of specific type sof
trees.. no two trees are visually the same whereas jets engines are
more or less the same except on some minute level. 
 
Beauty in nature is chaos whereas the beauty in manufacturing is in the
replication of form ..consider the influence Andy Warhol's Soup Can has
had on art and the source of it's inspiration.
