It kind of makes sense, if a complex system has found some kind of steady state there must be some "restoring forces" at work to hold it there.

I think this is one of those things that is True with a capital T.
If you start with the premise that life is valuable, it is eventually derivable. Life tries to exist, and since existence is path-dependent making a change is likelier to be wrong than right.

I've never thought about the universal preconditions that must be true for me to be thinking about them. This is shifting my whole worldview, thanks!
This agrees with the slightly-neutral theory of evolution. A given mutation is more likely to break something a little bit than improve that something a little bit.
