Either both are the same computation and goes through the same state computing the same
thing
But "same thing" is ambiguous. They may both compute 2.76 but in one case I know it means
degrees Kelvin and in the other it's parts-per-million. In which case I'm the external
world providing the referents.

or they're not and don't go through the same state. An infinity of computations goes
through the same state on partial run, up until step n. All the stopping computation
stopping at the same step are one and the same. So no even if you can imagine a cake
made of grzeaeftthfey that doesn't make it possible. Two distinct computations don't go
through the same state, at least one state is different.
