I have a layman theory on protocell organization. It can't explain replication, but hear me out. So one of the most likely candidate locations for abiogenesis, purportedly, are hydrothermal vents. Now, consider Cymatics (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cymatics). Maybe you can draw the same conclusion I did.
Wave formations are a source of order amidst the chaos (pressure waves in this case). This may be testable, even. If it did hold any truth, then the popular, common mythos' of "the Word" or "speaking things into existence", or creation via music etc... maybe was more intuitive than we realized :)

Well, my comment is going to end up hidden. I guess this just isn't that interesting, and I assume the video I am linking here will be seen as meaningless with no possible historical bearing on physics or chemistry.
Is there a good reason this is not being considered? Like, these abiogensis articles never say anything new, and have no interesting propositions. They say it's a mystery, then propose a vague implausibility that can only be explained by another mystery. Like, I would appreciate at least some creative thinking here.
