A bit of dementia.
Fell out of bed, dragged a comb across my head.
So, do the Germans have an equivalent to the old washroom toilet stall poem that goes:
Here I sit all broken hearted
Paid a dime and only farted
Having to pay a dime to use the toilet in a store.
I spelt mine wrong.
mmmm…salted pork
Bye
Of couse it doesn’t say superorganism, that’s just plain wrong. My source is also any intro anthro textbook. It’s over your head it seems.

There’s no referal to superorganism, not sure where you picked that up, just the superorganic. Many people believe different things about what is supernatural, it’s inherently vague. Many people believe ghosts are real but they are still refered to as the supernatural.
Mythbusters tried exploding a stomach with pop rocks and soda, if that’s a viable comparison, based on a Little Mikey myth. Certainly looks painful.
I’ll compare to the concept of human culture being called superorganic, which is an old cultural anthropology concept which can provide a model for critical thinking. We don’t understand culture, yet we define it, record it, measure it. Hard to predict, I’ll admit. Refering to it as superorganic implies it exists at a higher complexity than we understand. Gravity and many other observational phenomena also exist at a higher compexity than we understand. Thus although you may not like to refer to such things as supernatural, it’s not wrong, it’s an opinion.
Super- means above, like superimposed. Our lack of understanding means we don’t know why it exists. It’s above our understanding, even if we know it exists.
Assuming ghosts have been proven to exist, like op stated, but without knowing why, like gravity. Above our understanding of nature, supernatural, given the prefix super- means above.
I think this makes gravity supernatural, we believe it but don’t understand it, it’s above (super) our understaning of nature. I’m not sure if this it what am axiom refers to, building all our theories on an unknown foundation. So I think ghosts could remain supernatural, we know they exsist, but their exitense is above our natural understanding. I mean, if I define supernatual as meaning above nature.
Maybe gain a bit of momentum by adding a forwards somersault.
When I get to the bottom I go back to the top of the slide
Where I stop and I turn and I go for a ride
'Til I get to the bottom and I see you again
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ha-ha-ha!
