It's not an imitation, it's an interface. Cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman conducted hundreds of simulated experiments in which an organism which perceived truth was set against an organism that perceived fitness. Truth always goes extinct, because fitness is more efficient. Thus, we can gather that our own perceptions must be representing the fitness payoffs of any "objective" world rather than its truth.

If any objective world does exist, it's not a reality. Reality is perception. What cannot be perceived, therefore cannot be real.
