> CoT models can, in principle, solve _any_ complex task.
What is the justification for this? Is there a mathematical proof? To me, CoT seems like a hack to work around the severe limitations of current LLMs.

CoT _is,_ in my mind at least, a hack that is bolted to LLMs to create some sort of loose approximation of reasoning. When I read the paper I expected to see a better hack, but could not find anything on how you take this architecture, interesting though it is, and put it to use in a way similar to CoT. The whole paper seems to make a wild pivot between a fully general biomimetic grandeur of the first half, and the narrow effectiveness of the second half.
