Abstract
A prior debate which started with the publication of an article by the author (Molero-Ramírez & CarroGodoy, 2022) was totally grounded on a misreading of an earlier article published by Palacios-García & Parada (2021). All the objections were derived from a critical and careless misreading of the authors’ intentions, so the following paper is a reappraisal of the holobiont mind as an empirical framework and its relationship with the enactive theory of mind.
