Holy Grail, pareidolia, or something quite simple?

The discussion about the order of the sixty-four hexagrams in the King Wen sequence has often come to the fore in recent decades (also here, in last June). Namely, are the hexagrams arranged randomly or according to a conscious design?
At long last, I am through with my essay on the (assumpted) initial arrangement of the hexagrams. In this work, I believe, there are convincing arguments for the theory that the unity of opposites might have been the philosophical ground for the classification of the hexagrams well before the received (King Wen’s?) sequence.
My new website still is under development but the article is readable here: https://kingwen.net.
