I think that Human logic is already a progress compared to Russian, or
Belgian, or Hungarian, or American logic, or ...
And then you know how much I agree with you, once you substitute
"human" by "lobian" (where a lobian machine/number is a universal
machine who know she is universal, and bet she is a machine).

I'm afraid so. Thanks for acknowledging.

Sure. And if we take ourself too much seriously, we can miss the
ultimate cosmic divine joke (if there is one).

Be careful and be open to your own philosophy. The idea that "digital"
and "numbers" (the concept, not our human description of it) are
restrictions could be due to our human prejudice. May be a machine
could one day believes this is a form of unfounded prejudicial
exclusion.
I hope you don't mind my frank attitude, and I wish you the best,
Bruno
