Why is it more accurate to define the biosphere as a global ecosystem rather than the global community?

it's more accurate to define biosphere as the global ecosystem rather than global community because it just includes all the living things in a certain area regarding their different species. However, when you say ecosystem, you automatically include both living and nonliving things such as soil, water etc. So it is more accurate saying global ecosystem when you are talking about the earth-biosphere.
