Yet another point is that the LK-mechanism due to the Galactic tide also acts to “borrow” comets from the Oort cloud, thus delivering matter to the inner Solar system, where the comets may become sungrazers and be disrupted by the Sun in its vicinities; and their matter is dispersed in the interplanetary space. Thus, the LK-mechanism worked and works independently thrice (forming the Oort cloud, borrowing comets from the Oort cloud, producing sungrazers from the borrowed comets), in sum realizing the delivery of the primordial matter to the inner Solar system.
