Introduction
Hello everyone, welcome, today's CRT is quite the ambitious one and something I've had planned for months. First, special thanks to @Deonment and @Astral_Trinity439, you two were a massive help, without further ado let's get into it.Starting Points
To start things off, I'd like to begin by reviewing the standards for Low 1-A and utilizing various sources from the wiki to do so. As mentioned in the tiering system, Low 1-A is a tier wherein characters power is on the level of the Von Neumann Universe. Either encompassing, or affecting structures which encompass, the collection including all possible dimensional spaces. What I'd like to focus on is the text under; As a general rule-of-thumb, statements of being "above dimensions" and the like, whenever validly indicating a superiority over higher dimensions, fall under this tier without further context. The important part here is understanding that being "above dimensions" when validly indicating a superiority over higher dimensions is generally how one can qualify for Low 1-A. As by default statements of being above dimensions are set to Low 1-A, as are statements indicating superiority over "All of space and time" and before someone mentions it no, transcending all possible dimensions is not required to achieve Low 1-A.Evidence
To begin, we first need to start with Lee Hyperreal. As he is a "being" with the power to transcend beyond time and dimensions (translation) this statement is in reference to the version of himself who would ultimately "climb" and "ascend" the Hetero Tower. What is important is that Lee can only achieve this through utilizing the Hetero Tower's attributes, which he was only able to do thanks to future Nanami giving him access to the Heteromer Shard. It is not just because of his connection to the Tower that he is capable of doing all these things, but also due to a power source that comes from beyond both the Hetero Tower and Gate (which is computing power, more on that later). It is reaffirmed multiple times that the Hyperreal frame can transcend beyond time and dimensions (translation) and that with it Lee possesses the capacity to transcend time and space, with it being stated again here. Naturally, this would obviously be referring to a more substantial, more literal transcendence of spacetime than is typical across various fictions, refering to superiority over all of time and space which can be used to reach Low 1-A.Our next piece of evidence stems from one of, if not the greatest mind within the verse and one of the most reputable sources within the series, not only because he has explored the Hetero Tower and Gate but also because he is the original creator of the "Keys". That man is none other than Dominik, who only further supports the other feats by saying that the Hetero Tower (in reference to the Gate) has powers that transcend dimensions. Lee upon reaching the Gate has his vision no longer limited by space, which is consistent with the previous statements, as dimensions are obviously what define space with Ishmael also saying the Gate is outside space itself.
Computing Power
Now that the evidence has been presented, let's briefly go over what computing power is. I'm sure some of you saw the dimension transcending scan and began wondering what exactly it was, so allow me to explain. Within the verse computing power exists as a unique power source, it can be incredibly important for allowing characters to achieve various feats, at the lowest of levels it's nothing special. However, when coming from a powerful enough source, it can be used to achieve feats of unmatched scale. Such as powerful reality warping and even transcending higher dimensions, as was shown in one of the earlier scans, the higher the quality of computing power a character has the wider range of things they can achieve.The only characters who utilize computing power in this fashion are Lee Hyperreal, Ishmael's various projections, The Punishing Virus and Nanami, due to the computing power they possess being directly sourced/given by characters who exist in higher realms, it allows them to utilize it to achieve levels of power beyond what would otherwise be possible. Notable examples to this thread in particular is Lee Hyperreal's computing power based off the Heteromer Shard which I did briefly touch up on earlier, which gave him the ability to freely travel through time, warp reality by molding worlds within the Hetero Tower through his very own cognition and even the aforementioned transcending of time and dimensions. He received the Heteromer Shard from future Nanami who exists as an administrator beyond the Gate of the Hetero Tower.
Now I'm aware we don't really need all of this, as at the end of the day Low 1-A is a quantitative tier, not a qualitative one like 1-A. However it is still something I thought was worth adding, to summarize though. The Hyperreal frame used the Heteromer Shard's computing power given by future Nanami, which in turn allowed Lee to undergo dimensional ascension transcending along a web woven with the fabric of time and space when utilizing the Hetero Tower and its attributes, and ultimately is what granted him the ability to transcend beyond time and dimensions.
Conclusion/TL;DR:-
In short, the Gate of the Hetero Tower should receive a Low 1-A rating, as should characters who directly scale to or above it. Characters who physically scale to and/or above the Gate such as Lee Hyperreal, the Primal Projection, Future Nanami, Chaos, Ishmael and other Observers that I haven't yet made profiles for would also get Type 2 BDE. That's all for the proposal, have a good rest of the day.Agree: SuperSonicTL, Astral_Trinity439, ActuallySpaceMan42, DarkDragonMedeus, Vesxpura, Elizhaa, Vietthai96, Xdsagecat, Mbpoops
