Good point.
And today, those who get the real power on this planet are still the
bacteria. We need them. The vast majority doesn't need us, except,
well many but still a minority which lives with us.
Strictly speaking those bacteria are as modern as us, as leaves of
the fourth dimensional life structure of this planet.
But all this might be the result of something more simple, a bit
like z := z^2 + c iterations in the complex plane.

Hi bruno: Seen from outside, life has the appearance of regions with
low entropy going in the direction of increasing entropy . There is
a mathematical definition of entropy: the metric entropy. I do not
know if this can be applied to the Mandelbrot set.
I guess it can, as the Mandelbrot set is an example of deterministic
chaos. It classifies an infinity of more and more complex dynamical
processes. But I have not studied this entropic feature very closely.
