And what is it that prevents you from seeing that 4**8=65536 is 
irrelevant to the compression of random data?

All your talk about "reformulation of problems", "infinite number of 
arithmetical solutions" and "generic arithmetic encoding" is just a smoke 
screen to distract from the fact that you don't, in fact, have a 
compression algorithm that can losslessly compress arbitrary random data 
of any length.

I am as sure as this as I am sure you don't have a perpetual motion 
machine, a method for squaring the circle using only a compass and 
straight-edge, or a fool-proof system for winning the lottery every week 
without any chance of failure.
