I have to say that I find the idea that there is some special "right order" for elements to accumulate in makes no sense to me.
​
Perhaps you can explain it and how your model gets around this supposed problem. Does your hypothetical companion star neatly tune its fusion to produce elements in a precise order ?

Are you going to explain this "right order" the elements have to accumulate in ?
​
Since you are using it as an argument for your model you could at least explain what it is and why it is so "absurd" that it could happen under any other scenario.
​
Or is it the case that there is no "right order", and it was your argument that was absurd ?

If there is no "right order" for elements to arrive, then your argument that it is "absurd" that they would arrive in the right order under conventional views of element formation is a clear falsehood.
​
If I read you correctly you have withdrawn the claim that there is a "right order" but now I have to ask why you used an argument that relied on there being such a thing and why you have not explicitly retracted it.
