they would probably be like us but we couldnt eat them. and vice versa. I mean we could but maybe a bunch of the molecules would be the wrong chirality so we couldnt digest them with our enzymeshttps://twitter.com/edwardW2/status/1420966805955223555?s=19 …

my guess is none although it would be weird if idk some invert engineered autotroph escaped and somehow started competing with R-DNA autotrophs and outcompeted them because nothing would eat them and oh shit now we die I guess?https://twitter.com/__frye/status/1420968621732339715?s=19 …

im inclined to extend benefit of the doubt here because theyre claiming (i) to have actually built something that (ii) doesnt contravene laws of physics as they currently exist and (iii) has no obvious political valence but yes who knows it may be trash https://twitter.com/edibleflowerga1/status/1420964967981928448?s=19 …

gonna pat myself on the back for apparently independently deriving a standard view of the ecological dangers of mirror life so yes if mirror cyanobacteria escaped from a lab we would probably all die fortunately biology labs are proven extremely securehttps://twitter.com/prawncis/status/1420982623048925187?s=19 …

an upside of a mirror cyanobacteria escape and population explosion would be that huge quantities of CO2 would be extracted from the atmosphere, solving global warning apart from the mass extinction of R-DNA life there may other minor side effectshttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Oxidation_Event …
