I'm intelligent, but not nearly intelligent enough for whatever this is...

Is this just another way of talking about the Teleological framework of time (like the heptapods in Arrival)?

    I think it has something to do with a philosophical argument I read almost 2 decades ago.

    It went something along the lines of; we create new physics the more we study and understand it. Like a rendering fractal, the closer you look the more complex it becomes.

    That reminds me of the bit from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy where the moment anyone actually understands the universe the whole thing disappears and is replaced with something even bigger, weirder, and more confusing.
