If "a" is cellular automaton and "b" machine language, then is a<b? Or can a=b?

Is the reduction of machine language into cellular automaton thorough? Or are there elements outside of this reduction? Are certain "Mathematica Rules" usually here but incomplete in any reverse engineering into cellular automaton?

Yes, that is helpful. I'm looking at details like parsing, tokens, kernels and it is helpful to imagine a Wolfram or Donald Knuth view below high-level code. If Grace Hopper created a metalanguage because lines of code were getting to be "many", what small projects would benefit from a "cellular automaton" view? So I will ask myself what is possible with Rule 110.

Rule 110 is Turing complete. Does that answer your question?
