 1) Complexity in living cells is not a particularly good proxy for the probability of spontaneous emergence.

I assume Davies means abiogenesis, not instantaneous formation.
The more complex a minimal first life must be, the higher the improbability of naturalistic formation, yes?

 2) On an initial scan of the press release and paper this looks like evidence against life being designed.
