In the same way that a splice off of a plant isn't the same plant... The plant it was spliced off of is the same plant, though.
If you plant it again, it isn't the same plant. Just because Christians, Jews and Muslims claim to have the same creation literature (The Muslims even have a completely different narrative about Abraham) doesn't mean it's the same god.
But the plant it came from is.
Christians are also saying that the spliced plant is the same as the donor plant, but the donor plant isn't different retroactively, and they recognize the donor plant as well.
