8. Yes, but so are "thief" and "murderer" so that's not a terribly strong point.

Appeals to what is and isn't natural are never a good way to settle debate about how we should be living - I *like* fire and the wheel! Whether or not a boundary is just a social convention is nothing whatsoever to do with whether or not it's a good idea or not.
