I liked The Simple Truth as a cute little story... I still have no idea what the intended message was supposed to be. It's not even clear if the guy who decided to experimentally and dramatically test his model of the world survives through quantum immortality.
The intended message was that a lot of the dead ends in epistemology are pretty silly when considered explicitly.
What was the dead end?
every other sentence markos makes is a reference to some famous epistemological claim.
I really like the cute little story as you say, but agree that it isn't effective where it is. Maybe include it in the end as a sort of appendix?
