I think the analogy between entropy and kinetic energy is
superficial.
The latter explicitly depends on speed which is a relative variable,
determined, by definition, with respect to a certain reference
frame.
The former (according to its thermodynamic definition dS = dQ/T)
As to a tiny fraction known by humans of an awesome amount of
information about a macroscopic system , - what about a container
with liquid helium in superfluid state arbitrary close to T = 0? If
John knows its state, but Mary does not, what entropy should we
attribute to the container?
