Hi LC,
Once again, you made an excellent work with a very profound Essay. Here are my comments:
1) This should have been an excellent Essay also in previous contests "It From Bit or Bit From It?" and "Is Reality Digital or Analog? ".
2) My recent work on black holes, that you know, goes in the same direction that "topology and the computation of topological charges and indices, quantum numbers, and connection to logical switching theory are likely to supplant concerns of geometry, metrics and infinitesimal structure of manifolds."
3) On the other hand, I am not sure that such a statement goes in one specific direction. I try to clarify: you claim that
i) "This means that the fundamental description of reality is not with space, spacetime or anything geometric. Geometry or metric space is something which is a measure of entanglement of quantum bits with black holes and the inability to follow the entanglement phase. Geometry is then not fundamental."
But you also claim that:
ii) "Spacetime is built up from entanglements".
Thus, in my opinion, statements can be inverted. One could claim that "Entanglement of quantum bits is something which is a measure of geometry or metric space". In other words, this could be a sort of duality and/or complementarity of the fundamental description of reality. Geometry and entanglement could be two different aspects of the fundamental description of reality, but we could be unable to decide which one is the most fundamental.
In any case, I stress again that you wrote an intriguing Essay deserving the top score that I am going to give you.
I wish you best luck in the Contest.
Cheers,
Ch.
