I see your point and agree and can add a bit more in my own theory
Life, nature, the universe is imperfect. Imperfection ism is the perfect system. It creates the dimensions and time. Without the Universe continually seeking perfection there would be no movement, no time. Just a sea of DEAD. In G.L. The Anti Spirals believed they were the culmination of Perfection and thus time around them and the universe was a sea of dead. Therefore they were the cause of destroying the universe. Spirals are expanding the universe. Life is the only antithesis to system decay and as soon as Lord G. gave up growth and expansion he was decaying the universe around him even if they were not his intentions. In the end of the OVA we see an older Simon and if you look at his eyes you can see the same spiral energy as Lord G. I interpret that as the growth of the imperfect power.
