So are you more concerned with the phrase "the complete description of the natural numbers"? Because by that I he was meaning 'capable of proving all truths about the arithmetic of natural numbers'. And this would include multiplication. And so I don't see how this system could fullfill the the idea of the systems he was talking about. So it's supposed 'to decide ALL mathematical questions which can in any way at all be expressed formally in the systems concerned'.
