I view entropy as a probability distribution of some set of configurations of something. Entropy is low if there’s only one configuration and high if uniformly distributed. There’s also some observer/interaction effect which is like introduction a conditional probability which would cause crystallization in an otherwise homogeneous system. Essentially a catalyst. I also find it fascinating that when it is super cold outside and you throw a pan of boiling water out the window it turns to snow instantly vs a cup of room temperature water which does not. It probably fits in terms of activation energy as well.
