Melting is a physical process that changes the form and aggregation state of a thing, but it still remains that thing. Melted gold is still gold, for example.
Burning on the other hand is a chemical process that leads to new "things". The egg isn't longer an egg.
You're comparing an element to a hyper complex concept (not even a structure).
If you don't agree with him, then you're saying butter doesn't melt.
Water isn't an element, but it still adheres to these rules.
