Hi Craig,
OK, so we have these "spherical vesicles" that are formed. Do they have a door or window that the amino acids that are forming on the primitive Earth can get through so to set up camp on the inside? Hopefully these "vesicles" formed or landed near the alleged primordial soup, that way the alleged first self-replicating molecules wouldn't have to travel too far to reach them.
Then we have the issue of once inside these "vesicles" the information to make the vesicles had to be transferred to the self-replicating molecules or did vesicle after vesicle rain down upon the Earth and continues to do so now unnoticed?
No, with abiogenesis scientists are grasping at straws. But it doesn't hurt to look, you never know what other piece of knowledge can be gained by trying.
