Ok. So, what I wonder is: Can we say that a consistent description of reality is all that we really need? Who cares if there is no such thing as simultaneity? Who cares if quantum systems can defy the macro flow of time? The only extent to which we would care, is if it doesn't fit our current model. But our current model has no 'grand answer' atm, so these findings do not overturn one. Why should we expect all relationships to fit our human conceptions of what relationships are? We know they don't, and we can test it over and over again with the same result.
It might be turtles all the way down; but if we have every reason to believe that it doesn't switch to rabbits unexpectedly, then maybe that's what we should start to consider to be 'the grand answer': It's turtles all the way down. We can still gather more information about these turtles, but why look for the foundation under the last turtle when there is nothing to suggest there is one? Turtles all the way is the foundation.
