That's a funny answer from a guy who proposed to explain everything as traces in all
possible computations.
Just to sum up, as you mention "everything"
With comp+Theaetetus:
God is explained by the Arithmetical Truth
The Intelligible is explained by Number-Provability (Gödel's beweisbar)
The Soul is explained by the conjunction of Number-Provability and Truth
Intelligible Matter is explained by a probability calculus (called "bastard calculus by
Plato and Plotinus) on the traces of all computations.
Sensible matter is explained by a intensional variant of Intelligible matter, again its
conjunction with Truth.

"That which can explain anything fails to explain at all."
With physicalism, QM explains everything. At some level at least.
First, that's not true. QM is apparently inconsistent with our best theory of gravity.
Second, it has been very successful at explaining what is observed. That doesn't mean it
can explain ghosts, leprechauns, gods and other things *not* observed. There's a
difference between being able to explain anything and explaining everything.

Would you say it fails?
I say that it fails only by its ambiguity on the observer, it uses comp (in Everett) but
fail to justify its measure. And then it fails to address God, Intelligible, Soul and,
well, the whole theological matter, which concerns life, but also possible others lives,
other reality realms, and the other billions of very difficult question coming from the
arithmetical reality (or its intensional variants).
