Hmm, that's an interesting interpretation about the difference of the first and last traits, though since we know they were forcibly created(according to the Chaos Memory)I think such antagonist nature would track back to them having been separated into Twins after losing, while the first three were taken as newborns and warped then.If you're right, then the Eye would almost certainly have to be a remnant of God or one of the other Arbiters. That, or something the story hasn't touched on at all so far, which would feel like a copout if it was some as of yet completely unnamed force in the world. Though that might explain H.E.R.O.'s big three being so strong, if they are the chosen of the last 3 Arbiters (Though I don't know how Bernhart would represent Soul if that's the case, as Malik would obviously be Chaos and Henri even more obviously Paradox) going up against the first of the altered.
My thoughts on Syla's reference to their differences seemed to be more so because the first 6 are additive, meaning there is no overlap, but together they become a greater whole, while the latter 6 were antagonistic, meaning they are equal opposites, but if you could somehow balance them, they could become something all encompassing. More simply, the first 6 are half circles, that create a whole circle, and the latter half are like yin and yang, coming together as an interconnected dichotomy to create the whole that is taiji. (Okay, so the taiji part might be weird, as we use yin and yang a lot over in the west, but not the concepts above them like wuji or taiji, but it can be interpreted as, "source of the world," according to Wikipedia, which would fit an Arbiter.)
About the Eye not being evolution, I think he could be something like the Qliphoth, but most powerful, something with relation to the Gods(in the Eye's case, the Arbiters) but not an equal, more like a tool(?, we know that the Qliphoth can birth Monsters, and the Eye call all the Monsters and Spawns on the battle of Diamonds(including an outlier like Malik) his Twisted Kin, something born from him but that he can't abide, all this to say, the Eye might have been the tool to create Life of the Previous Pantheon, Arbiters, a Divine Servant rather than a full-fledged Deity. Goliath also call him something that means 'Master' rather than God, and according to Ella, Goliath was birthed by something that is currently a fossil, like the one Doll Ella can give MC in Aos' palace.
