Wrong question IMO. We're shaped by evolutionary pressures from situations that no longer pertain, so it's not surprising we are not optimized for a world that just sprang into existence.

My question is: Why is reality (especially including at the quantum level) so damned different and counterintuitive relative to our day to day experience? Why doesn't the universe scale up uniformly so intuition is holographically legit?
