Who knows? It is interesting speculation..

We need to remember that Darwin published only 150 years ago. And that we are still dealing with Biology on an non-integrated basis. Newton integrated Physics with the "Principia." Nothing similar has happened in Biology. We don't even have an absolute definition of "life" yet.

The best definition I have read is an operational one.

"Life is a thermodynamic process that organizes energy."
