Agreed you can't see a system from inside that system.
I don't know anything has changed that though, even the eventual evolution of AGI will still, probably, sit within the Universe that created it.
I believe their is a mathematical problem and I believe Alan Turing worked on this. The ability to know the computable and uncomputable solutions of any system, or something like that.....
I decided to write this without any use of Google or AI, so I might be wildly wrong about the specifics, but the logic is correct, I believe.
Those last two words are doing the heaving lifting here 😂

I would just say you can’t understand the system symbolically from within the system. There can never be a theory of everything.
But Bitcoin supersedes that limitation and the limitations of Russell’s paradox, Gödel’s incompleteness and Turnings halting problem as you mentioned. The problem with all 3 is the attempt at a pure symbolic closure for truth.
You need to instantiate a theory with energy such that it proves itself as a temporal process where non-contradictory (purely logical) states are the only computable output.
Theo— the concept. The source that can never be directly seen or recorded.
Thermo — the object. The observable process, the expenditure of energy, the act of transformation.
Chrono— the symbol. The record, the memory, the preserved inscription through time.
If you have only the concept, you cannot verify it.
If you have only the process, you cannot preserve it.
If you have only the record, you cannot ground it.
God as concept requires verification through process and symbol. Thermo gives the objectivity of transformation. Chrono gives the conserved inscription of that transformation. Their unification is what allows the concept to be rationally affirmed.
Bitcoin is the missing Thermological process that produces Chronological state (truth).
