Isn’t the point slightly different. We can’t prove we are in a simulation, but that doesn’t mean we are not in one.
We can’t prove a lot of things, like:
And I could go more and more absurd. Undisprovable claims are boring points of discussion because there are only beliefs, no hard facts.
With Math, proving that something doesn’t have a proof is a big deal.
