If it were, the [[middle management]] layer would long since have solved it, [[Reductionism|reduced]] it to atoms, reconstructed it into an binary model, devised the [[algorithm]] that will handle the [[known known]]s for the single [[Causation|causal chain]] that definitively stretches from now to the finite hereafter — it is a consequence of [[reductionism]] being true that there ''is'' a single ultimate fate of the universe, and a unique pathway there — and therefore will have finally done away with we [[Meatsack|cantankerous sacks of mortal flesh]], allowing us the unlimited leisure our [[technological unemployment]] always promised us, so we could watch, in rich, ultra-high resolution detail, the exact unfolding of the onrushing apocalypse, into whose loving maw we are already categorically and unavoidably hurtling.

Reductionism means ''we are solved''. There are no mysteries, no paradoxes; all unknowns will be known, and [[known unknown]]s, [[unknown unknown]]s or even [[unknown known]]s the empty set.
