Re: how likely it is that we live in an only partially reductionist universe?
Reductionism is a term which has been debased. It ought to still mean what it did in Hofstadter’s time—in which case such a question would make no sense.
AFAICS, the modern corruption is due to the spiritual physicist John Polkinghorne, who deserves ignoring.
