Fredkin-Wolfram digital physics: 3 decisive tests

Is the Fredkin-Wolfram information process the unique, physically valid computational method for M-theory? Why should we believe M-theory?
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/elegant/view-weinberg.html
Have the M-theorists omitted some essential physical hypotheses? Consider some speculative ideas:
(A) The multiverse is a Fredkin alternate-universe engine with hidden determinism as described by Wolfram’s NKS Chapter 9.
(B) Every physical change in energy is an integral multiple of the minimum positive energy.
(C) Standard mass-energy satisfies Einstein’s equivalence principle, but both dark matter and dark energy violate Einstein’s equivalence principle.
(D) Guardian magnetic monopoles exist in a finite, digital black hole and produce paradigm-breaking photons.
What might be three decisive tests of A, B, C, D?
(1) The one and only explanation of dark matter is the f(div) theory of modified general relativity theory. Modified M-theory with alternate universes should allow the calculation of a huge net virtual photon mass on the cosmological scale.
(2) The one and only explanation of dark energy is the nonzero cosmological constant in general relativity theory. Modified M-theory with alternate universes should allow the calculation of a huge net loss of gravitational energy on the cosmological scale. Each observable universe converts multiverse kinetic energy into multiverse potential energy during that observable universe's Big Bang expansion. Each observable universe converts multiverse potential energy into multiverse kinetic energy in the instantaneous quantum collapse when that observable universe's Big Freeze reaches the maximum physical wavelength.
(3) The one and only explanation of the GZK paradox consists of paradigm-breaking photons emitted by black holes, which are naturally digital.
Is the basic problem with M-theory that M-theorists allow string-like entities to vibrate with infinitely many degrees of freedom, violating Fredkin’s finite, digital nature hypothesis? Is nature essentially described by Fredkin time, Fredkin distance, and Fredkin digit transition as in Wolfram’s network model using a mobile automaton? How can Fredkin and Wolfram’s ideas be precisely formulated and decisively tested?
