I think what hasn't gotten across is that the Turing tomb not only simulates the being in question, but also its surroundings, either sufficiently distant surroundings or the entire universe as required. This includes the beings with which it is to interact. So when another being talks to the Tomb, the Tomb is expecting this and replies appropriately, giving a perfect display of interactivity.
