No, the world is NOT generally comprised of objects any more than it is
generally comprised of waves.

The sw developer flocking phenomenon you cite is causally unrelated to
what the world is _comprised_ of and has more to do with blowhards
brain-washing our naive children with propaganda.

We see the same flocking phenomenon in pop music, roller shoes, tikcle
me elmo dolls, and the popularity of tv.
