Couple of thoughts, also related to pairing/merging/equalising, which seems to be the way of our Universe.

The SI.M is used to influence the flux transfer between our Sun and Earth, yes? Used to create an effect here.

Elenin, now seems to be a pointer to something greater, namely a red dwarf star of which it orbits. This red dwarf is still a star, hence it can still be effected by SI.M technology cant it?

Events involving Stars take a long time to occur from our perspective, so with the incomming red dwarf, could the SI.M be used to transfer energies between our Sun and it? If this process is starting, then surely thousands of years will pass during the exchange, and the environment here on Earth will change as a result of the new Sun.

We will live in a binary system for a period of time, and it will effect how we do things and live, and indeed, on a cellular and DNA level, change us, so that we can live, or at least effect our bodies to the point where the next generation can live. (and that applies to everything)

So, working backwards, if any of the above is the case, then an initiating/conditioning element might need to be distributed right throughout the planet, permiating all things living, to facilitate these changes. Fill in the "back up" junk DNA spots. Augie. Or what the actual use and intent of the stuff is.

So, no lovey dovey, or Gaia worshipping here. Just a planetary system getting ready to change and adapt to a new way of doing things. Release of a medium that will disperse throughout the biosphere and seed/condition that realm.

But, some have access to ET tech' that will enable a more rapid change, so that current living human types will survive and thus thrive in this new era. Enter the Chinese with their SI.M tech. Maybe it does not alter what is happening on the Sun, but "read" what the changes will be, and hence initiate a change here on Earth, specifically within their own race and DNA composition.

Just a thought.
