you have to sort of act as if your brain was screaming that loudly even when your brain doesn’t have a voice that loud.

Which, presumably, would be able to model the universe correctly complete with large numbers.
That’s the theory, anyway. Y’know, the same way you’d switch in a Monty Haul problem even if you don’t understand it intuitively.
