Except she wants to be able to eat cupcakes.

Not equivalent. Puppies can eat cupcakes; maybe she wants to be a puppy?
It is not sufficient to expand a poorly defined desire (does she only want to eat cupcakes? What about steak? Does she think of cupcakes as delicious morsels or abominations to be destroyed? Etc.) into a vaguely correlated set of other desires, assume that this one path of many is the intent and sole possible outcome, then drop into full on prejudice-mode and expound a crude metaphor to attempt to express this, without further explanation.

You know, now that I think about it, why can't robots eat cupcakes?  I mean, surely a civilization that has achieved singularity must have also started developing biochemical reactors, which work best with carbohydrates, which is basically all there is to cupcakes.  Or maybe I missed something.
