"Could you elaborate a bit on what you mean by this comment? Maybe it is
clear to you, but what does "not non-life as we know it" mean?"

Just some literary 'freedom' of expression. What I meant is that the
protocell is perhaps not life as we know it but it is more than non-life.
It multiplies, responds to impulses, grows etc. Sort of a chemical
transitional between life and non-life <g>
