This seems to be a narrow argument about chirality, rather than some “panspermia” kind of claim.

Breslow’s argument includes a 10,000 C plasma fireball upon meteorite impact, a poor start for organic synthesis. Chiral protein amino acids are L-configuration, natural chiral sugars are D-configuration. Pookie pookie.
Replace achiral pseudo-Riemannian spacetime curvature with chiral Weitzenb̦ck spacetime torsion. Obtain a chiral vacuum background differentially active only toward mass configuration РEM is inert. General Relativity works to spec given no natural resolved chiral bodies (meat and wood cancel on Earth). The chiral vacuum effect is 10^(-12) relative or smaller post-inflation.
Massed sector chiral vacuum is testable. A parity Eötvös experiment opposing chemically identical cultured solid single crystal quartz would do it: one set of test masses in space group P3(1)21 (right-handed screw axes) and the other in space group P3(2)21 (left-handed screw axes).
Somebody should look.
Hi Chad,
glad you appreciated my attempt at popularizing calorimeters…
Cheers,
