This seems like a specific application of the observed entropic principles that cosmologists have been espousing for a while. It leaves off the fun part to make itself a law though - all evidence indicates that we are headed towards a state of universe-wide low entropy&#x2F;low complexity where everything is just radiation. Everything is a Bell Curve.<p>Edit: ‘evidence’ was probably too strong of a word and should have been something like ‘generally&#x2F;widely accepted models’ instead.

all evolving systems … are composed of diverse components that can combine into configurational states that are then selected for or against based on function

I&#x27;ve been saying this for years! Glad somebody was able to ... make a paper out of it.
