Researchers have successfully ported a dataset concerning Gödel's and Scott's ontological arguments from Isabelle/HOL to the Lean 4 programming language. This comprehensive port maintains the original structure, including 30 modules and the order of declarations, with a comparison tool verifying the identical nature of 548 statements. The project re-proves all results from the original study, such as the inconsistency of Gödel's 1970 axioms and the concept of modal collapse, and addresses statements that were previously refuted or left open.
