mitosis is a vocab term from ninth grade biology... no need to google it.anyway, whether or not he's beyond human capabilities, his healing factor has always been described as an "advanced healing factor," or superhumanly fast healing factor. it clearly lets him live through traumas that would kill a lesser man, and it clearly lets him heal much faster than anyone could ever hope to. i won't ever argue that fact, unless certain cases (decapitation) continue to be brought up. what i'm arguing is that anything considered "advanced" must be compared to the lesser example, i.e. wolverine's healing v. mine or yours. and, though it's better by leagues, it still needs to function on primarily the same level, within the same relative laws, such as cellular division. unless, as my entire argument has been saying, his power gets retconned into an alchemic restructuring of lost mass. otherwise, he's doing the impossible, despite the "advance." that's like saying a modern day laptop is infinitely better than the first prototype computers (entirely true,) but can also fly to the moon under its own computerized will...
