Do you agree?
Yes.
By the way, what do you mean when you say reality is intentional? I am interpreting it as meaning reality is intended/designed/authored per your conclusion wording. Is this interpretation correct? Just want to make sure I'm not misunderstanding the argument.
Yes, or that reality possess intentional properties.
But since you agree with the above question.
When it comes to the deterministic reality of the novel, or in the programmers reality, do you acknowledge that it’s not the really the characters in the novel or simulation assigning meaning and values but the author and programmer of that reality?
