[Fis] Robert Rosen's modeling paradigm

Dear Igor,

After your reference to Robert Rosen's modeling paradigm, I read about
it and I have a question.
Can you tell why Rosen makes the distinction between a living organism
and a "machine" such that machine is unable of self-repair and
self-reproduction.
As far as I can understand there is no fundamental reason to forbid
"machines" to do so.
Do I misinterpret Rosen?

All the best,
Gordana
