You are quite right. Thank you for clarifying, and sorry for being dense. Part of the confusion came from the definition of indistinguishability being defined in terms of observations the AI can make, but most of it was from being silly and failing to carefully read the part outside of the formalism.

No need for apologies! Clarifying things is always useful. I'd forgotten why I'd put certain things in the formalism and not certain others; now I remember, and understand better.
