Abstract

This communication article was stimulated by the author's private discussions in relation to his recent publication of the second law of infodynamics. These valid observations deserved a response, which is the objective of this article. In particular, the derivation of the second law of infodynamics from cosmological thermodynamic considerations appears to have a point of weakness that requires further discussion, as detailed in this article.
