Polymerase can only amplify the population of RNA molecules. So, the population of RNA molecules would become of a population consisting of most rapid molecules for replication and then further evolution will struggle. Thus, connection of CCSI with CMIO is essential process to escape from such a non-living state.
chemistry background (and has published a number of physical chemistry studies investigating the compatibility of the RNA world hypothesis with a hydrothermal vent origin of life), but has also published extensively in the social sciences area, for example applying evolutionary concepts to other 'life-like' systems, such as social insect colonies and human civilizations.
