To push further on this… a natural response is to say “it only seems implausible that Bezos’ liver could have this economic value because you’re considering an organ in the abstract. But once his liver is combined with the rest of his Bezos and the influence he can have on the rest of the world, it stops being implausible”. This is true but then the same point applies to collections of atoms. I don’t know of a non-question begging way round this.
