Oh my good catch. I actually meant ingenuous. I think the OP started looking into my references specifically looking for loopholes (which is good/fine), and then happened to pick Frank first unfortunately rather than Cavin or Zhirnov.
Ingenuous as in naive, innocent, unsuspecting. I think he naively wandered into Mike Frank. I really like some of mike frank’s explanations for bit energy and entropy—the philosophy of computation, but the critics (which includes Zhirnov/Cavin) who believe his admirable quest to achieve practical reversible computing is quixotic are probably correct.

Ingenuous was my first thought too, but it doesn’t have the meaning I think you intended. Perhaps disingenuous?
