Okay buddy ya wanna get specific? Let’s get specific. Sea creatures are made up of protons and neutrons. So was Hitler. Coincidence??? Checkmate? Nah we aren’t done yet buddy.

What are protons and neutrons made up of? Quarks! You know what else is made up of quarks? My average sized penis.

Do you think my penis is considered safe? What about sea creatures? I think you have a lot of research work to do in physics and polymers.

you have given me a lot to think about

An average sized amount to think about.

I would say it's actually only a small amount to think about.

You're not wrong, but the idea that "plant based" is "safe" isn't right either. Plants can create all kinds of horribly toxic, carcinogenic compounds -- especially when burned or heated.

Wood smoke of all things is mildly carcinogenic and we cook our food with it.

If you had read my comment, you’d see that I never said nor insinuated that PLA was safe. I specified it differed from petroleum.
