I do not buy into the idea of NPC humans.

I agree with this. I’m seeing a lot of arguments and questions lacking vital definitions. I’m not going to get upset if someone has to use more words to make a finer point.

Not only have you failed to properly define what you mean by “simulation” in this sense, you have waffled your way into the realm of bias.

I have one question, which in turn should undo your argument.

“What about people who aren’t guided by intuition and have accidents, sometimes with fatal results?”
