Do you wish to imply that chemical and biochemical systems are
expressible in the same form of mathematics which are used in mechanics?
If so, would this imply that Shannon information would be readily
applicable to biochemical systems?
Not to mention the whole question of genetics...
Nor the role of history in selecting the dynamics of the mechanics...
