The math is interesting, and could be of some use, but it is a priori far too much Aristotelian to be coherent with the mechanist hypothesis. That should follow “easily” from the result described in most of my papers on this subject. The author does not seem aware of the mind-body problem, which put extreme constraints on what the physical reality can come from. Even Peano arithmetic, although integral part of the notion of observer, is too much rich for the ontology, where not only the axiom of infinity is too strong, but even the induction axioms are too strong. Pragmatically, sets and typed lambda terms or typed combinators can indeed be very useful.
