I think it's the most understandable version of your argument that you have written yet. Put it on the web somewhere and link to it whenever the issue comes up again in the future. If you are right, you may have to resort to "told you so" when other projects fail to produce the desired emergent intelligence. No matter what you do, system builders can and do and will say that either their system is probably not heavily impacted by the issue, or that the issue itself is overstated for AGI development, and I doubt that most will be convinced otherwise. By making such a clear exposition, at least the issue is out there for people to think about. I have no position myself on whether Novamente (for example) is likely to be slain by its own complexity, but it is interesting to ponder.
