He accepts Stoic's analysis on that which is one of the reasons why I think Penrose is just going to turn out to be wrong right? If we found an exception Deutsch points out that you could find exceptions in his paper he says we could falsify the Turing principle. We would then use that new physical phenomena to build a new type of computer  that would then be the new version of the church Turing thesis and we would continue on our merry way. In fact that's what happened with quantum computers we now have the trick Turing Deutsch thesis even though his name has
