I really can’t steelman DR, it took me a while just to understand it. Optical illusions aren’t very problematic to DRs since they can simply blame our own misunderstanding of the world, a pencil half submerged in water appears bent due to diffraction but since this is natural then there’s no problem, it is your own misunderstanding of optics that leads you to the mistaken opinion of the pencil being crooked.
I don’t see how that works. You can use cognition to correct some misleading perceptions, but you only need to because they are misleading! So, it isn’t shown that there are no misleading perceptions,and it isn’t shown how they work without intermediaries.
