Challange: make an RRO that is 1/3/4 fold. I'm not sure if this is even possible -- you can have a 1/3 fold rro, because two copies opposite each other might somehow interact, but rros that can be mn fold without being n fold seem quite unlikely in particular, if you have a 4-fold but not 2-fold rr...

RAYO(RAYO(RAYO(RAYO(TREE(TREE(3)))))) This uses an uncomputable function and is also too much of a jump, btw.

The interesting thing about engineered diehards (or rather, tangentially related thing) is that you can make patterns whose death is impossible to prove in a finite amount of time for halting problem reasons (pattern which self-destructs if a relevant TM halts), or, say, a pattern whose fate is tied...
