Hang on,
"If Turing completeness is faulty" "there will be no other option than to exit the position of using Turing complete technology."
Which one are you talking about? Unless you mean both?
"Turing-completeness" is to "Turing-complete" what "Madness" is to "Mad": just a way to name the quality of something being Turing-complete.

From what I've heard, if you believe in Turing completeness, pick Tau-Chain.
If you believe in software being Turing Complete, pick Ethereum.
This doesn't make sense to me. Typo?


Ok. Well I found where I got that from. It's this: (not the full post)
My ideas:

Marketing
More interviews explaining how TAU is security (Turing completeness) and expressability (The new Tau language)     (correct if this is not true)
If you believe in Turing complete: Ethereum
If you believe in Turing completeness: Tau
If you're not sure: Diversify in both

So I guess that's not a good explanation? (Sorry Rw13enlib88)
Actually I think I'm just reading into it way too much. Smiley

turing complete languages leave you helpless predicting what your code is going to do, except the "wait and see" way
Ohad, can you give us an example of this? Show us how it would work, because I don't understand how it works. Smiley

I can try to give you an analogy. Let's take cargo ships for instance.
[great explanation] 
Wow, thank you for taking the time to explain that for me. Now I understand very well.
