>>3426068 (OP)If every part of the house is replaced with newer stuff that looks the same piece by piece as those locations deteriorate… If you also repaint the walls you replaced to the smae color the old ones were… If eventually you replace every part of the original house with identical replacements is it still the same house? imo I would say yes in the spirit of the law, but to the letter of the law technically it's not the same house. I guess what I mean by technically is that on a molecular level there's more deviation from the original patterns in the materials. On a practical surface level it's the same house, but zoomed in it technically isn't.
