The only problem is that people don't like what it's telling them. Richard Feynman used to say 'if my students don't understand quantum physics, that's OK because I don't understand it either." What he really mean't of course was that he had trouble accepting what it was telling him, because he understood it perfectly.
The question is how would a simulation look from the inside of one? How would you tell if you were in one?
Well light (or anything) appears as a particle when it's being observed. That is to say it's being rendered when it's being observed. When it's not being observed then it's a probability wave, as there is no need for the simulation to render it, just like on a computer game. Care to explain the Delayed Choice Quantum Eraser in an objective material reality? Of course it only confirms what Bohr, Heisenberg, Schrodinger had already shown. Not caused by the detector, not caused by turning on the light.

How do you get a big bang in an objective material reality, where all the matter and all the laws of the universe spring into existence at a point in time 13 billion years ago? Where light has a constant speed, and time stops at the speed of light. Mass increases to infinity at the speed of light. There is no objective "now". "NOW" depends on how fast you are travelling relative to someone else. Read Einsteins "Relativity of Simultaneity"

Light at No Speed
The materialist metaparadigm assumes that space, time and matter are the primary reality. Both quantum theory and relativity suggest that light is even more fundamental. If so, then some of the difficulties science has with light may stem from our trying to treat light as if it were part of the material world.
Take, for example, the speed of light. As we have seen, for light itself, time and length both shrink to zero. From the photon’s point of view, it travels no distance, and takes no time to do so. It therefore has no need of speed.
Why then, does light appear to us to have a very definite speed?
When we observe a photon from our frame of reference, in a sense, we draw out the zero space and zero time of the photon’s frame of reference into a definite amount of space and a corresponding amount of time. If we are traveling close to the speed of the photon, we see a little bit of space and a little bit of time between its point of emission and its point of absorption. The slower we travel, the more space and time we observe the photon to have crossed.
If we observe the photon to have crossed space and time, then it appears to us to have a speed. But it is not really a speed at all. What we are observing is the ratio in which space and time manifest in our frame of reference. For every 186,282 miles of space that manifests, there always manifests one second of time. It is this ratio that is constant for all observers, however fast they are moving.
