Isn’t heat death of the universe the most uniform energy distribution? When entropy is at it’s maximum, it means every point has the same energy as every other point, so it can’t move and do useful work. Partial entropy is the chaotic part, then everything settles in order again

In principle you’re right, but there’s an important distinction: Maximal entropy corresponds to a uniform probability distribution. It’s the configuration where we have lost all information, i.e. are most clueless.

Ah, I’m in that state every day then :)
