Hey, what if you derive

instead of the other way around?

What exactly makes you think that mass and energy are equivalent?

It's sort of simpler to have everything "pure energy"
that everything "pure mass" or "pure charge" or
"pure velocity of an organized image" or
"pure lifetime of a nuclear radioisotope",
it's sort of central and sits neatly in the space,
it's chargeless, massless, has no velocity, always changes.

Energie is in a way 'rotated' mass, if you multiply mass by i and regard

So mass is timelike and charge (potential) spacelike.

Inbetween we have 'light-like' and that is the realm, where energy is

But non-radiating energy should also be able exist somewhere (as

Well, it is what it is, an approximation, e = mc^2, and that
there's apocryphally some testing of it via experiment,
then though it's so that the changes in energy's state
and configuration and location as a packet-of-potentials,
has various forms (formulas).
Then it seems you idea invokes DesCartes' or Kelvin's vortices,
with regards to the two usual ideas, one being that the
linear goes into the rotational, and the other that the
rotational goes into the linear, and the usual idea of
the equal and opposite linear, then as well for the usual
the equal and opposite linear at the head of a packet-train
of the rotational the vorticial, with the idea that the
equal and opposite reactions,
are systemic.
