Well I figure he's more of a magically animated blob of pink goo than a proper biological organism.
This.

Isn't the whole point of Buu being magical for him to defy laws?

He's still a living creature. Even if we assume he is functional by magical means, his physical body still likely contains cells. His extremely peculiar biological makeup possibly works in conjunction with the magical presence within him. Both of these aspects working closely together is what likely enables him to manipulate his physical essence the way he does.

We're assuming that Dr. Gero wouldn't study its structure and find some way to replicate it though? He managed to do it with Ki and that is pretty magical in ways.

Agreed. It seems very plausible that Gero would find some way to replicate Buu's insane physical makeup and amazing techniques -- his innate ability to learn moves, high battle power, unrivaled regeneration.

Too bad Gero's dead.

This is just his supercomputer overlooking the finishing touches on Cell no?

Depends on how super the super computer was I guess? I mean if it was literally breaking down the elements of the Saiyan's to find out the source of their strength and incorporating it into Cell's design then it is highly possible the super computer could do something with Boo. It really depends on how much Dr. Gero was involved with the genes before he left the computer alone. If it was the computer that was judging the Zenkai, Regeneration, Super Saiyan genes as things to be incorporated into Cell's make up rather than Gero himself then I would say the computer was smart enough to find some way to incorporate Boo's design or structure into Cell.

I can't say for certain, but I always thought it was the computer that was allocating the traits accordingly. The way I saw it, Gero simply started the process of growing the embryo, and left the computer on its own during the process of genetic development, as well as during the overall developmental phases. Regardless of the specifics, Gero must have had a lot of confidence in his computer to rely on it to the degree that he did. If he felt that his computer was incompetent, I don't think that he would have had it oversee the progressive maturation of his ultimate creation. I could definitely see the computer being able to take what it needs to from Buu and utilizing it to the fullest with good efficacy.

Didn't he basically upload a copy of his own brain into the computer to make it think like him?
Cool stuff that I upload here because Youtube will copyright claim it: https://vimeo.com/user60967147

Well if he did, then all the more reason for the computer to have the adequate amount of competency to carry out his tasks.
