Seems like information is stored in 2D, giving cred to this theory, i agree with this model.
Solving string theory equations in 11D results in combinations of 1´s and 0´s, self repairing code if i remember correctly!

But there are interesting philosophical aspects as well, if we lived in a simulation, the prof of it not being a simulation could simply be simulated :)
Proving it was a simulation on the other hand would work , leaving no other outcome. Its impossible to disprove :)

Applying the size of the universe and numbers of planets, gives great odds of a civilization existing, that have the technology required to able to simulate an existence with self experience.

I find it a credible idea at least and a interesting one.
