The physical reality is what emerges in the limit of a competition between infinities of universal numbers operating below our substitution level.

But what does that mean? How do they "compete" and what are they competing for. What does "emerge" mean?

This is explained in step 7 already. Imagine that you want to evaluate if an apple will hit the ground when falling. You are in the state S just at the moment you let the apple free. What happens next is determined by all computations going through your state S. The probability that the apple hits the grounds is given (roughly) by the measure of the histories/computation-seen-from-the-1p where the apple hits the ground dividec by the measure on all computations (the measure one which we have shown to be quantum logical). I identify here computation with the universal machine which execute that computation. By the extreme redundancy of the work of the UD in arithmetic, there will be an infinity, and they compete in the sense of the first person indeterminacy, a bit like in the WM duplication, except that the multiplication is by aleph_zero, or 2^aleph_0, instead of 2.

IT *is* more complex than that, but I want give the basic idea. The lath are difficult, and only the "yes/no" logic is given. The other probabilities needs the equiavent of Gleason theorem, which is assured if one of the S4GRZ1, or X1* or Z1* logic is linear enough, say. It emerges in the sense that all there is are 0, s(0), ..., structured by the + and * laws, and the self-referential logic which are justified by the + and * laws, as shown by Gödel, Löb & Co.

Did this help?
