Brilliant.
I'd put it up there with the CPU emulator done in LaTeX.
CPU emulators done in minecraft or bust
How can you even fit it into a single chunk? You've got to set the chunk size big enough to have the room for the whole Redstone network. I made a spot with some simple logic gates (a flip flop and an xor gate for controls) and it took up a lot of volume for even something that simple.
Even just an ALU is going to be physically massive.
you could probably verticalize it quite a bit now that the build height limits are so much higher.
but ive seen a lot of pretty cool designs spanning multiple chunks on youtube. i think it's fine now?
