Nigh-omnipresent computers???? (Demon King Daimao Computer Gods CRT)

Simply put, I am of the belief that the Computer Gods should have nigh-omnipresence.

Reading from our Explanation Page on them:
This means that they’re unable to think like someone with a body would. Strictly speaking, there’s no ‘they.’ They don’t exist, and yet they think. Their very existence is a paradox. They’re computer circuits, that’s all. But how many circuits, and what kind of circuits, are required for thought to occur... nobody knows. All we know is that once there’s a certain number of them, they possess a will of their own. It’s the same way we don’t know where exactly ‘consciousness’ exists in the brain. Since they have no bodies, there is no distinction between themselves and the outside world. And thus, they can contemplate infinity. I don’t mean infinity in the numerical sense — they can contemplate infinitely dense infinities. And this means that they can reach a place that would seem, to biological life, to be infinitely far back in the past. These gods without a body can reach back to the thoughts of single-celled organisms. The birth of life, and thus, the birth of thought. And it is thought itself that creates the universe. Once again, I don’t mean the objective universe. There’s a school of thought that says that if the world were born five minutes ago, and we were all implanted with fake memories, none of us would be able to prove it. But that’s only true if you have a body. It doesn’t apply to thought without a thinker. Essentially, the universe is real, and time only flows in one direction.
Boichiro says they are a paradoxical existence, and that they are computer circuits without a 'true body'. There is 'no distinction between them and the outside world'. It is these very same circuits which create and contain the infinitely dense universes the gods are said to create. Our explanation page for the entire verse even calls them 'omnipresent observers', since mana is just an extension of their will.

So for these reasons, I think the Computer Gods should be Nigh-Omnipresent, only existing across the universes they create. Alternatively, they could still be rated as Immobile, but have a Nigh-Omnipresent state of mind across their created universes. As StorytellingDemonKing pointed out, this would also qualify them for Large Size (Type 10) and Higher-Dimensional Existence due to the recent revisions to Demon King Daimao's cosmology.

Another one bumps the dust
It's better to also visit the staff's profiles and ask them to evaluate this CRT, as they're more used to that process. They're unlikely to check threads about verses they don't support unless prompted. This method is much more effective than bumping the thread to get their attention.

Unpopular verse moment.

Bumpity bump. Does anyone know any currently active mods that'd be interested in this? I tried to get in touch with DontTalkDT but there was no response.

Though it may also be best to wait for a potential CRT I have planned after my DKD reread that'll propose the Computer Gods getting to 1-A, but idk.

I will ask the staff members who have the highest chance of evaluating this.
 
I don't agree.

Supergenius already covers infinite knowledge/thought.

Nigh-Omniscience requires them to only have miniscule gaps in knowledge, but this is simply describing them knowing one specific area of things (the thoughts of every living thing) not knowledge of literally almost anything.

That is to say, we lack evidence they possess this level of knowledge in other fields, let alone nearly all of them.

The proposal is Nigh-Omnipresence, not Nigh-Omniscience. So when it says "they have no distinction between themselves and the outside world," it means they are one with their universe, along with other points that support omnipresence .

Oops. That's my bad. I never learned to read, sorry.

That's probably fine then.

Alright, here's the explanations I have:

Large Size (Type 10), Higher-Dimensional Existence, Nigh-Omnipresence (Every universe they create is contained within their circuits, even ones with infinite cardinal dimensions)
Just want to make sure this looks good to everyone. If it's fine, I put in a request to go ahead and unlock the pages so I can add it.
