      How do we “know” anything where the answers are just being made up as part of humanity’s collective cultural game of Calvinball?

      Courts in various jurisdictions will make various rulings. Judges will interpret them in various ways. Legislators will chime in with new legislation and new treaties. Internet arguments will churn away with a whole range of assumptions about what is true or false that may or may not have anything to do with reality.

      I present my opinion here. I feel it is well informed and I can back it up in various ways when challenged. But nobody “knows” anything because these aren’t laws of physics or math that we’re talking about here.

      Or did you mean whether we know if a copy of the book is embedded in the model? That can be more objectively tested, at least.
