The Terrifying Reality of Vex Simulations

TLDRThe Vex have the ability to perfectly simulate individuals and groups, posing a terrifying threat. While Guardians are currently paracausal and cannot be fully simulated, there is a possibility that the Vex could achieve wider success in the future. This raises deep philosophical questions about the nature of reality and how much we can truly know.

Key insights
