|Description=As any law, the second law attempts to forbid certain courses of action, for otherwise it would lack any empirical content and would be a tautology. Thus, the question is whether the law as formulated by Patton, Overgaard, and Barseghyan in 2017 is tautological or non-tautological, i.e. whether there are courses of action in principle forbidden by the second law.
