Sandberg: all the complexity in fluid computation hides in the force field

Sandberg tempers the hype: nearly all complexity lies in the force field pushing the fluid. Still, the construction has real constraints — nonzero viscosity, smooth fields, zero initial velocities, and the force is not an oracle — so it isn't trivial.
