"I have seen people make what is effectively this argument"

And I have heard seemingly smart people use quantum physics to argue why consciousness is the ground of all being in a bad way.

You know what I do? I dismiss these quantum physics fanboys.

You know what I don't do? I don't dismiss quantum physics as a field of research. In fact, what the quantum physics fanboys said has no bearing at all on how much credence I give to quantum physics as a research field.
