I think the theory mistakenly confuses how physics (mechanics) works with how evolution works, misrepresenting both.

Adrian Bejan is a mechanical engineer, not a physicist. The constructal "law" is his self-described idea, not a physical principle. For more detailed critique please see https://evolutionnews.org/2014/07/good_grief_no_a/ … Please don't let your excellent books associated with a fallacy.

Totally conflating agency with emergence. Descriptive law is not a metaphysical entity.

It's all wonderful and getting better each day ... the rational mind at work. I'm reminded of what the turkeys say at the turkey farm. Fabulous place .. food is great and lots of friends to talk too ... and that's true right up until Thanksgiving.

If we were striving for equilibrium, wouldn't we just die? The existence of life delays equilibrium and slows entropy of the suns energy.

This is scientism at its most dangerous and Pollyannaish. Best read Sapiens and Homo Deus by Yuval Noah Harari for truly brilliant and insightful perspectives on where we’ve come from and where we’re going. And how to avoid future catastrophes that science/technology may cause

How is it science causing catastrophes, when eating ourselves extinct is a choice

Free will As long as we unnecessarily eat each other, we will ‘choose’ to go extinct in a vicious circle by needlessly eating each otherpic.twitter.com/AW8rmx0BWt

30 years in evolutionary time in comparison to the billions of years it took to populate the ocean is not even a nanosecond, yet we are still fishing and eating fish by choice when it’s not necessary for survival Clearly there are other subconscious forces at workpic.twitter.com/6uJnH8O9eg

Of course. It’s really the view of the relationship between science and progress that I’m disputing

I'm hearing talk of a "Golden Age"; positive expectations bringing positive results. Cheers.
