That is pretty sweet, even though I didn't really understand it much. Energy efficiency is always a good thing.

How does this mesh with reversible computing, if at all?

I don't think there's a floor to the efficiency of reversible computing, but also AFAIK, there isn't a Turing-complete reversible computing model.
Da Rules excuse all the inaccuracy in the world. Listen to them, not me.

That is, computers that produce the absolute minimum energy permitted by physics
might be appearing soon. These things are about 1 billion billion billion times more efficient than the thing you're using now.
