And... "animals" is not an abstraction???

No, it most certainly isn't. There a real conditions on what makes an animal which are universal to all animals. This does not seem to apply to the notion of an all-encompassing principle of the universe; some validity claims are incommensurable. Rta suggests to me that all validity claims are commensurable.
