you missed the point. you need code for picking some outcome that you see out of outcomes that you didn't see, if you calculated those. It does take extra code to predict the outcome you did see if you actually calculated extra outcomes you didn't see, and then it's hard to tell what would require less code, one piece of code is not subset of the other and difference likely depends to encoding of programs.
