On your second point - my definition of interestingness is any distinguishing feature. Anything at all that can be used to tell universes apart. If you think I am talking about life or something like it, you have not understood my argument. It claims that life is an arbitrary feature to focus on to begin with. I don’t know which scientists have made the ‘lifeless universes’ argument and how, but my argument has nothing to do with that.
On your first point—If we accept Tegmark’s identification of universes-in-general with mathematical objects, the question becomes whether Ramsey Theory applies or not.
On your third point—Given that theorems exist for coloured graphs, multidimensional grids, and coloured consecutive numbers, (hardly high-level structures), it’s not exceedingly far fetched to imagine ramsey-type structure arising in a universe, or our universe being expressible as one of those structures.
Yes, this last bit is speculative, and this is why I asked for feedback.

Oh, your definition of interestingness is kinda sorta the opposite of what I thought it was. “Having a monochromatic complete subgraph of a certain size” is not a distinguishing feature of sufficiently large colored complete graphs, because all such graphs have that property.

It all depends on whether you find very small areas of uniform patterns interesting.
