I think we are misunderstanding each other. I don’t doubt entropy is real. I was just trying to say that it isn’t made out of any physical substance, but rather ideas and thought experiments. You can not hold it in your hands is what I mean by it doesn’t physically exist. It is the absence or end of things.
But then again, same can be said of anything but matter, and even matter as we experience it is just a set of reflections and electrostatic repulsion.
You never truly touch a single object - you just reach the force equilibrium - and all things you see around you, as well as yourself, are 99,99999% emptiness, or rather a few tiny electrons being everywhere and nowhere at the same time. Even if we could compress our entire bodies to a grain of sand, it would still be mostly that - an emptiness filled with uncertainty. So, does it even matter?
Entropy is a concept used to describe, calculate and predict natural phenomena, it doesn’t physically exist.
The way it shows in physical models suggests it’s a very real phenomena tied to free and bound energy.
We can say energy has a tendency to be released with growth of entropy in the process.
Energy along with matter forms everything physical that we observe.

Oh, I see!

Entropy is the RNG that keeps the simulation from going stale.
