Ironically it doesn’t matter what the form looks like, there’s a 50/50 shot everytime life develops if it’s right (us) of left (not us) biochemistry.

It literally doesn’t matter which happens, functionally the life could be 100% same except a mirror image.

Anytime two actually separate lines of life encounter each other, there’s a fight on the bacterial level of the ecosystem, and the “new” one will win 100% of the time due to stuff that would make this comment too long to read.

  Think of it kind of like small pox blankets. A violent anomaly introduced to an environment that can’t defend against it. I’d imagine that’s the kind of thing OP is talking about, but I may have misinterpreted their comment.
