What about a fertilized but unhatched duck egg? That's kinda both a duck and not a duck.
I think you'd consider a roast duck a duck, but what about a duck drumstick? Would you say that's not a duck? If so, how much of the roast duck needs to be connected for it to be a duck?

Since this is indeed a binary system, every part of "Duck" is also "Duck". So a duck salad is not duck, bit the meat in it is "duck".
