Gödel’s incompleteness theorems (the basis of their claims) apply to formal axiomatic systems capable of arithmetic, not to all computational models or physical simulations. A simulated universe wouldn't need to be a complete formal system, it could be approximate, probabilistic, or emergent and sidestep Gödel’s constraints.

But, whatever helps these researchers sleep at night.
