If the chemistry was too simple and the complexity of the interactions was too low, then nothing would happen; the system would be “subcritical.” But if the complexity of the interactions was rich enough-and Kauffman’s mathematics now allowed him to define precisely what that meant-then the system would be “supercritical.” Autocatalysis would be inevitable. And the order really would be for free.
