Life is the ultimate form of entropy. If you define heat by how much an object increases the long-term unpredictability of the system into which the object is injected, then pound for pound, there is nothing hotter than an RNA molecule which is brought to a barren but habitable planet.
The idea is sound (or could be formulated in a sound way) but I think the redefinition of already perfectly serviceable words like “entropy” is unnecessary.
