I have reached similar conclusions but going through a very different path. And I think that computability theory can be of help for the particular issue you are dealing with in this article.

I vaguely remember you making an opposite point about martial arts, maybe eight years ago. I hope you forgive me if I am mis-remembering. Do you hold pluralist beliefs about martial arts? Or is Brazilian Ju Jujitsu the One True Theory? Would you say that you are "pluralist for now," but agree that one day we might solve chess?

Excellent. And then again, If I - ranked 1700 - play the Reti against, say Magnus, I'd get destroyed. But if played it against a 1300 player, Id likely prevail. So even within the weak and strong forms, there are sub forms that leave the pluralism question unresolved? Maybe!
