Yeah, this theory is not airtight even without me cutting corners in the explanation to keep it brief.

I imagine you can fix the holes with some thinking and speculation, but then again, does it really matter if you are just a "NPC" I mean for everyone else you are, but to yourself it's only you who can answer that. I can't look into your head and you can't look into mine (metaphorically speaking) so we can only give each other the benefit of doubt.

I suppose our universe is a simulation it's probably possible that the devs could see exactly what we are thinking but considering evolution it's possible living things in general weren't intended our universe could probably be a simple dirt simulator and some bug in the engine made it possible for a specific explosion in a specific place accidentally made these special dirts to combine and create these slime contraptions that started to make themselves more and more complex and now they are combined into rigid structures that are exploiting the light and material ripple functions to interact with one another and the devs are just watching this bug and seeing how complicated it gets Note: reading my comment back this sounds like a gag from hitch hikers guide to the galaxy
