Entropy is the opposite of potential

Entropy is complicated beyond just a Rankine or Carnot cycle.

Biology thrives at the ebbs, flows, and eddies of entropy. Predation. Biochemical flux. There are arrows flowing every which way, and systems that keep it finely tuned.

This theory, based on my surface level reading and understanding, is that the aggregate particle-level entropy within sub light speed systems creates gravity.
