In that case, you have compressed your “short programs” outputs. They are NOT unrelated to the real world as well, since you wrote them and you belong to the real world.
I didn’t say they were “related to the real world” in the first place, though.
What I mean is that you can build your Occam-based compressor without using any sensors that sample the world—outside of a closed computer programming domain which includes you and a computer.
Thomas, you do not seem to be doing “sympathetic reading”. As a result, you are ignoring what I am trying to say, and are instead focussing on irrelevant trivia. The result seems to be of pretty minimal interest in this case.

It is NOT a closed domain. It is very much opened toward the real world. Since we belong there, we are a part of it.
