Maybe CausalChainCrossings can explain the seemingly unscientific occurrences of the LatticeOfCoincidence. I once heard it said (sorry, no references), that coincidences were nothing else but crossings over of causal chains. E.g. A => B => C A' => B' => C' where A and A' are not related and neither are C and C', but B and B' are. Independently, these chains are quite normal. But the huge number of dependencies in everyday life will probably inevitably lead to quite a lot of these crossovers, which we regard as 'coincidences'.
