No definable swap. But in case of completeness of definable rooms, Bob could pass all rooms (because in case of completeness all rooms exist) and occupy the last room (because in case of all rooms there is a last room necessary to establish completeness). This can only be prevented by dark rooms. > Bob disappeared > without going to a dark room.

There is no chance to repair mathematics when Bob disappears. Regards, WM
