I wouldn't call it de-extinction unless they made something that is 100% identical genetically to the thing they are bringing back.
And they don't have 100% of the dire wolf DNA sequenced, nor do they have DNA of the dire wolf's extinct ancestor between it and Canis lupus. It's a grey wolf with genes from a dire wolf added in.
Aaand they do not have mtDNA.
or like, actually looks like what we think they looked, rather than what was depicted in a fictional story
de-extinction ≈ decompilation, apparently
Does that make extinction a form of obfuscation?
extinction is when the great library burns down.
