Multi-sensory experience not only increases the objectivity of the experiences, it also increases comprehension and retention. We have become separated from 'hand learning', the knowledge that comes from physically altering the objects in our world, a deficiency which leads to the delusion that we could be living in a simulation.
I have been educated in the history of tool making by using those tools, from knives, saws, and drills to digital sensing; from inorganic to organic chemistry and bio-active systems; from mirrors to zoom lenses; from electro-magnetic induction to radio and Internet - and all by hands-on the evolutionary steps. I also worked on the first mass market products to include rechargeable batteries and LEDs, the first microprocessors, and the first closed loop water recycling for residences and greenhouses.
Incorporating haptic and proprioceptive information of all these constructs into hands-on knowledge of synthetic approaches to aural, visual, kinaesthetic, olfactory, and nutritional senses has expanded my hands-on knowledge of Newtonian Physics and the Calculus. I have tested the internal and external consistency of hundreds of thousands of personal multi-sensory observations, which are backed up by readings and discussions incorporating tens of millions of direct observations from which I am one person removed.
The mechanisms of calculating a simulation for all these observations are many orders of magnitude more complicated than the perceived Universe, so by Occam's Razor the probability of a simulation is essentially non-existent and the external reality is a complete certainty.
Do the MATH!
