It should not make any difference per se, but you can only track what you can sample, and you can only integrate what you can fit into a signal loop. So if you are stuck with a given substrate, you don't want to be too slow or too fast.
Life is just a layer of complexity of nature. It’s ridiculously hard to extinguish.

You do not consider all the also-rans & overwhelming non-life of nature :) My view is that life is in no way just a layer of complexity. It *unnaturally* sustains natural processes that keep it continuously separated from the surroundings through complete dependence on them.

It can't be that hard to sustain, otherwise it'd have disappeared long time ago (anthropic principle notwithstanding). The emergence of life seems to be a rule rather than an exception. A phase during the progression of universe from low-entropy to maximum-entropy.
