It is far from clear that a theory of that kind can express all arithmetic

He can only think in primitive logic systems that can't reach the complexity needed for the proofs he talks about, but can't see the problem, as he just doesn't understand the needed concepts.

 That would be OK if he wouldn't try to solve problems that cannot even
exist in those systems.
 

There are no problems than cannot be solved in a system
that can also reject semantically incorrect expressions.

We can easily extend the Comenius language to evaluate
FALSE as well as TRUE by allowing True(L, x) to also
evaluate True(L, ~x).
