If any particle were truly identical to another, then they could not decay at different rates. While we see this as "random" (aka spontaneous to our eyes), there is nothing to say that the duration of the life of the particle is not influenced by intentional dispositions. Particles may represent different intensities of 'will to continue' or expectation of persistence. In this sense, organic molecules could represent a Goldilocks range of time-entangled panpsychism which is particularly flexible and dynamic. Think of the lifetime of a molecular ensemble as the length of a word in a sentence as it relates to the possibilities of meaning. Too long and it becomes unwieldy, too brief and it becomes generic.
