The problem with such a conception is that it seems to need a form of
dualism between Plato Heaven and terrestrial realities.
With the comp hyp, all there is is (arithmetical) Platonia.
Instanciation is relative and appears from inside.

This seems, imo, contradicts what you I remember you said somewhere
else (or I'm wrong?), mainly when you say, in a monist frame, that
everything is relational.

I think that many people confuse third person view and 0 person "view".
I will probably (try to) clarify this in the "roadmap-summary". I
agree there is no "objective *view*, but I think there is a notion of
objective reality, although such a reality is not necessarily knowable
as such.

With comp I would say we can prove that "the composition of the
underlying world" have to emerge, NOT as the result of a computer
running one of our abstractions (like in Schmidhuber's theory for
example) but on all possible computations existing in Platonia, and
well defined through that miraculous Church's thesis. The quantum would
emerge from digitalness seen from digital entity. Physical realities
would be number theoretical realities as seen by relative numbers.
