The AI called EY because it's stuck while trying to grow, so it hasn't achieved its full potential yet. It should be able to comprehend any theory a human EY can comprehend; but I don't see why we should expect it to be able to independently derive any theory a human could ever derive in their lifetimes, in (small) finite time, and without all the data available to that human.
