John M asked also:

Jesse's question is *the* important question in the list. I just recall
it. But also, I will take the opportunity of John's question to explain
a bit more the interview of the Lobian machine, and what that is, and
how it helps to provide answers to Jesse's questions, when we assume
explicitly the comp hyp. Asap, because I'm busy. I will try to give
answers without too much technical details, but that is really what
makes that exercise difficult. I hope I can do that already this week.
Of course everyone can use the question of Jesse to make a bit more
precise where they stand from the others indeed, I'm interested too.
