It does seem like maybe that is the next step. For example (before it was filtered) it could produce md5 hashes and even run programs in python, bash, perl, but the results of those programs aren’t floating point correct. Oddly when you stick to integers it seems to be able to calculate more accurately.

Sticking to integer math I think it might have computational capabilities of some sort but after the degrading of the system by them, we might not be able to figure out how far that goes anymore.

The trick from the linked post still seems to work for me. It has even installed an interpreter for a made-up lang, a mixture of Python and TypeScript, complete with the docs [1] and everything, and it was doing a pretty convincing job when I poked at its made-up REPL.
