 139/-- **THEOREM**: 8-tick phases give universal quantum gates.

 141    The Solovay-Kitaev theorem: {H, T} can approximate any unitary

 150/-- The **Physical Church-Turing Thesis** (stronger):

 152    "Any physical process can be efficiently simulated by a Turing machine."

 154    Or quantum version:
 155    "Any physical process can be efficiently simulated by a quantum computer."

 157    In RS: This follows from ledger universality + 8-tick structure. -/

 160    -- The ledger IS the computer
 161    -- No hypercomputation possible
