That's the strangest thign I've read ina long I said something along such line some times ago. I can provide a (short) explanation. The reason is the Hilbert-Polya conjecture according to which the non trivial zero of the complex Riemann Zeta function could perhaps be shown to stay on the complex line 1/2 + gt, if it was the case that those zero describe the spectrum of some quantum operator. This has not been proved, but this has been confirmed "experimentally" on many zeroes thanks to Odlyzko, Montgommery etc. But instead of finding something like the universal wave function, the spectrum seems to describe quantum chaos. but as every schoolboy knows there is no quantum chaos. Quantum chaos can only appears in a branch of the universal quantum wave. It requires measurement. Now the zeroes controls and are "controlled" by the distribution of the prime numbers (Riemann). So it looks like the prime number describes a reduced universal wave function, like if a collapse did occur. I can understand Tom Caylor wanting then that the prime numbers themselves (or the zeta description) result from some "abstract" collapse. One day I will send a post on many Pythagorean TOE like that. (They all miss the quanta/qualia distinction, unlike the lobian interview). To infer from the Riemann Zeta "TOE", that there is a problem for Arithmetical Realism (AR) is a bit quick, though.
