That is true, but we have to be careful in our

But no weakening of comp based on nature is
known to escape the replicability. Even the non cloning theorem in QM
cannot be used to escape the UDA conclusion.
I already wanted to ask you on this one: you have said before on the

Thanks for the reference. That book sounds very interesting...

Then don't buy it. In my opinion, well to get the AUDA, the following
