That is a much lower complexity grade than I thought we would struggle with. Especially since we have decades of experience in solvers for rather large Boolean Satisfiability Problems, which seems like it could be adapted here.
A few months back I spent a couple of hours writing a binary TM simulator (yes I know you can download them - I wanted to write one) and then spent a couple of weeks running various TMs for days on end...
They exhibit quite bizarre amounts of complexity for what are really simple structures - indeed some TMs have apparently been observed employing Collatz conjecture type behaviour.
