Piglet, I think that you are going through the motions of presenting an opinion that is the opposite of what you believe. I sometimes do that as an interesting exercise. I do this in the company of people who have the same opinion as me. I present the opposing case.

It is my belief that the Mandela / Shazaam cases are not science. The double slit case is science but I do not regard it as correct to state that it is an indication that we are in a simulation. It could be, but my conclusion is that the reasons for the double slit result are as yet unknown.
