# UHT Encoding Comparison: "Wood", "Tree", and Idiom
| Entity | UHT Code | Key Trait Layers | Commentary |
| ---------------------------------------------- | ------------- | ------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Wood (forest)** | `3F 05 00 00` | **Physical, Functional** | A **biological**, **structural** zone; part of and critical to ecosystems. Encoded as material, perceptible, and system-linked — yet **non-symbolic**. |
| **Tree (biological organism)** | `BF 57 00 00` | **Physical, Functional** | Denser code reflecting a **self-regulating, functional organism**. Emits outputs, transforms, and plays a system-critical role — a **trait-saturated node**. |
| **Idiom (“Can’t see the wood for the trees”)** | `00 16 FE C7` | **Abstract, Social** | A **meta-cognitive construct**. Symbolic, logical, behavior-guiding, and culturally embedded. Encodes an **idea**, not an object — emphasizing abstract reasoning over physicality. |
