I came back to this post after awhile and found myself wanting to make a similar note, but first I searched for whether I’d already discussed it. And I sort of have here.

Entropy is also reversible if you import free energy from somewhere! Life is made out of not having entropy build up in the not-closed system that is the organism. And life, perhaps on a slightly different level of analysis (living will, living intent) is also made of not having adaptive entropy build up too much in it.
