Hi,
instead of discussing endlessly whether "information is this or that"
wouldn't it more productive to say: in physics (or chemistry or biology...)
there is a phenomenon X that we (whoever this "we" is) call information?
I have the impression that otherwise we are hostages of a Platonic or
essentialist discussion
kind regards
Rafael
