So damn near everyone wouldn’t be able to resist checking (how could you?), then after it’s confirmed they’d have to lose the memory somehow, at which point they’d immediately be tempted to check again. They’d spend more time being anxious to check or aware of the simulation than living it out.
Presumably people who would sign up for such a thing wouldn’t want to know. I don’t really understand that, but...
I don’t think there’s a way to get rid of the niggling feeling that this could all be a lie without making it for real, and even then it could be a clever lie.
