Saying that natural phenomenon can develop self-replication in organisms is more fanciful than my sandcastle story.

Even if this is true -- and I will note that you have not demonstrated as much -- the fact remains that evolution can only occur after self-replication exists. As such, the origin of the ability to self-replicate is not a "problem" for the theory of evolution.

How many more key components of viable life are you willing to cast aside?

Reproductive, digestive, circulatory, respiratory, the senses, temperature regulation, immunities..........
