that ordered experiences would outnumber disordered experiences; for example, a bare assertion that “All mathematical structures exist.”
I deny being a Boltzmann Brain, but I’m enough of a mathematical realist to disagree here. I find it very easy to imagine that all computable universes exist, but to weight the existence such that I am overly likely to be in a universe described by simple physical laws where billions of creatures like me exist in a normal-seeming universe than to be in a universe running Skyrim 5000 where Sheogorath is about to reveal that this is all a dream.
Of course, after I typed up the above paragraph, I kept reading and realized you largely answered this objection. Mods can delete this if they want.
