There is nothing that doesn't fit nicely with simulation theory. It's an epistemological tarpit.

> epistemological tarpit

Google tells me that this phrase has been used twice on the internet, both times by you on HN. I Googled it because I thought it was an interesting expression and wondered whether it was in popular use.

Haha, so I've not succeeded in making it a thing. Very evocative though, isn't it?

Ed: honestly though, it's kind of surprising no one else has independently come up with the same phrase. I know I'm not the only one thinking about things like this.
