The Limits of Information Processing and Computation Power
The resources necessary to simulate our universe are immense, which places limits on the number of layers that could exist beyond our own reality; despite this, people assume a uniform probability over all potential layers. Additionally, considering the potential power of computation and artificial intelligence raises questions about the number of possible word combinations that exist.

Summary
The resources and amount of information processing required to simulate a universe like ours is huge and there are limitations to the layers that can exist. We should not assume a uniform probability over all of those meta-layers that could conceivably exist.
