Yes, I do not have a proof, or particularly convincing argument that it is related; that is absolutely true, and I do not think I do. At the same time, the point is to look and see how it may enhance the understanding.
The thing is, the idea that our values may have something to do with complexity isn’t a new one. See this thread for example. It’s the kind of idea that occurs to a lot of smart people, but doesn’t seem to lead anywhere interesting (e.g., some formal definition of complexity that actually explains our apparent values, or good arguments for why such a definition must exist). What you see as unreasonable certainty may just reflect the fact that you’re not offering anything new (or if you are, it’s not clearly expressed) and others have already thought it over and decided that “complexity based moral values” is a dead end. If you don’t want to take their word for it and find their explanations unsatisfactory, you’ll just have to push ahead yourself and come back when you have stronger and/or clearer arguments (or decide that they’re right after all).
