Thanks. I was not aware the Scott has the same concerns based on computational complexity that I have.

I am not even sure that the ontology needs to rely on non-classical capabilities. If our multiverse is a super-sophisticated branch-and-bound type algorithm for some purpose, then it still could be fastest, albeit super-polynomial, algorithm.

Don't know if he does. I just mean that Scott wants a deep revolution in general, not that particular deep revolution.
