I have to respectfully disagree. The application of the entropy principle to living systems is by no means a subjective interpretation. There are many papers authored by scientists more clever than I may be about this subject.
Here are just a few:
"Biological systems as nonequilibrium structures described by kinetic methods" by Arstov.
"Maximum or minimum entropy generation for open systems?" by Lucia
"An introduction to the maximum entropy approach and its application to inference problems in biology" by de Martino
"Entropic Change Is A Ruler Of The Biological Rhythms And Time" by Sabater.
"Exergy analysis of human body and lifespan: a first approach" byMardi et al.
The list is much longer than that, of course.
