This is a hypothesis about why the chirality of life on earth is what it is, but I don't think there's enough evidence to state that this (or any competing hypothesis) is definitely the correct explanation.
- defrost 6mo agoWell "definitely correct" has no real place in probabilistic arguments almost by ipso factum absurdum :-) The chirality argument made is more akin to dynamic systems balance; yes, you can balance a pencil on its point .. but given a bit of random tilt one way or the other it's going to tend to keep going and end near flat on the table.
