There's not a lot of discussion on this thread
I thought that Laland made an unpersuasive argument. That is to say, I was not persuaded.
We hold that organisms are constructed in development, not simply ‘programmed’ to develop by genes.
Undoubtedly, this is true. But I have long assumed that this was well known, except among creationists. So I don't see this as enough reason for the proposed change.

Yes.
