I agree at this point that the AP by itself has no predictive power. My
view is that a predictor that currently works in a given universe - say the
AP plus other stuff - can not be considered to continue to work. Any
universe is subject to true noise either because its rules allow it [type
2] or the Everything imposes it [type 1].

The effect of a true noise event is to replace the subject universe with a
new one.
