Beg To Differ. Cosmos Has A Drive To Max Its Evolvability

To be sure, an organism in isolation self-organizes and present an ontological conundrum. In the context of the cosmic evolving systems it’s nested within and entropy — an evolutionary push-pull — it a continuation of a dynamic I call maximizing evolvability (see my Macroscopic Evolutionary Paradigm) and Kelly calls the infinite game (see What Technology Wants).

Evolution on all scales is mix of linear and nonlinear change. However, on the absolute scale of the cosmos as an entity, linear and nonlinear change is a single linear evolution — with directionality I would add.
