Admittedly brief reading is not convincing.

I am reminded of the Old chestnut

God is Omnipotent
Therefore there is nothing he cannot do
Therefore he cannot ask himself a question he cannot answer
Therefore he is not omnipotent.

The "fallacy" is using a position to disprove itself.

In the case of this article: Heat escaping from a house is accepted as an Entropic, expected disordering process. Using that to "prove" a preference for Order because the most efficient way is followed to create disorder, is a fallacy.

That more heat escapes through an open window is not a "preference" it is a consequence of insulation. How does obeying physical laws indicate a preference for order?

That the heat escapes at all is still an expected Entropic event- "against" order, not in pursuit of it.
