      We would have new life popping up all the time don’t you think?

      Depends. You’d have to have the right soup, and the right environmental conditions to make the the relevant reactions probable.

      If those conditions exist currently, those proto-life fragments would probably need to be in niches devoid of life, as they wouldn’t be able to compete/survive with DNA based lifeforms around.
