The Fermi paradox and quantum physics (as opposed to unlimited layers all the way down) are massive simulation streamlines.
Perhaps the conditions that cause the Fermi paradox are actually crucial for life. If spaceflight was easy, all resources would have been exhausted by exponential growth pretty quickly. This would invalidate the 'big distances' point as evidence for a non-streamlined universe, though.
