Why is the proof of decidability of arithmetic (Theorem 2.1) in Hamkins & Lewis (2000) enough?
Recently, I was reading the paper "Infinite Time Turing Machines" by Hamkins & Lewis. And one of the first theorems (Theorem 2.1) is about decidability of arithmetic.
The proof is quite ...

Infinite time Turing machines, semi-decidable sets and descriptive set theory
Definition A set of reals $A$ is said to be ittm-eventually-semi-decidable if there is an Infinite Time Turing Machine programme $P_e$ so that $x\in A$ iff $P_e(x)$ has converged on “1” on its ...
