If, as i contend the big bang started a "primordial process" of evolution and the "Darwinian process" emerged from that, then would you expect that "primordial process" to parrot the biological process exactly?
No.
For the 'Primordial process' to be seen as the "ancestor" of the 'Darwinian process' and count as a true type of 'evolution' it must exhibit the key mechanism of 'Modification Descent Selection'.
[Primal selection = the laws of physics]

Regress the process, regress the meaning.

The word 'Descent modification selection' have specific connotation/meaning in Darwinian evolution. If one intends to regress the Darwinian process back, should the meaning of those words also be regressed and hold a more basic connotation?
