Work with me here:
  -- What was the subject of my note, trees or ultrametricity?
  -- In my note, which word appeared 12 times as opposed to 3 times,
   tree or ultrametric?
  -- In my note, which concept did I say was exhibited by the DNA
   data that was not exhibited by (say) Euclidean geometry, physics
   concepts, or color spaces?
  -- In my note, which concept did I say was *not* a matter of
   opinion, and which could be checked by an impartial computer
   program?

Not in my note.
