Trying to think of how to respond to this. On the one hand it’s some nice babble, but on the other it doesn’t lay out much if any evidence that it might correspond to the way the world works. I don’t really think this post is inappropriate for LW, but I also think it’s current low score at this time of reading (4) is probably appropriate. My best guess is that it asks readers to cross more inferential distance than they can or care to and so fails to resonate with many readers.
As for myself I get what you’re pointing at and I think you’re turning your thoughts in a way that may eventually lead you to an understanding of the world not unlike my own, but given the gaps you leave I also suspect you have a long way to go in developing this understanding if you choose to. Relatedly I also like the back and forth in the comments here so far, and hope it proves fruitful.

Could you perhaps elaborate on what is this understanding of the world you hold?
