To enlarge the circle a bit.

"(What happens instead is that both phenomena are causally connected with the so-called arrow of time, in turn related to the statistical tendency of closed systems to increase their entropy, in agreement with the second principle of thermodynamics.)"

A possible critique of this perspective is that it assumes time and entropy increase as fundamental, whereas an alternative approach posits that causation itself is primary in the universe, with space-time emerging as a secondary or derivative structure. Instead of viewing causation as tied to the arrow of time via entropy, one could argue that causal relations exist independently, generating both the flow of time and the structure of space.

This perspective aligns with certain causal set theories and relational approaches to physics, where the fundamental building blocks of reality are causal connections rather than pre-existing space-time coordinates. (C Rovelli, Huw Price, Rafael Sorkin, F Markopoulou, The Wolfram Physics Project... to name a few).

Not conventional points of view, but we are talking about echo chambers here. Probably, the whole of science also has a "super-process" that breaks the echo chambers of its past paradigms. Science does not make leaps with logic.

Mathematics has not been mentioned much (alongside journalism, science, philosophy), but it can truly represent an example of perfected artificial 'lenses' that sometimes point to ways out or state that there are no ways out. For instance, the √-1 had no meaning in the realm of real numbers, but complex numbers provided a way out, leading to great developments in science.

Mathematics sometimes imposes limits with no way out. E.g. the extension of number systems progresses from real numbers to complex numbers (adding 𝑖=√-1), to quaternions (losing commutativity), and to octonions (losing associativity). However, according to Hurwitz's theorem ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurwitz%27s_theorem_%28composition_algebras%29 ), octonions are the last step where normed division algebras ( https://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/normed+division+algebra ) exist - further extensions break the fundamental properties.
