Everyone knows the implication of the observer. If a tree falls in a forest and nobody witnesses it, it still fell. Without this law, the world beyond human experience becomes a froth of ambiguity and darkness. Time without history, without meaning.

It's the cornerstone of the dogmas of science since Einstein. But why do we accept this is a dynamic arising from the same thermodynamics establishing the concept of time?
Do you see a fallen tree and think to yourself 'this tree grew along the ground'? No, you infer it fell. You survey its snapped limbs and shattered trunk, look for scorch marks from lightning. You see events from a place beyond time.

What happens if you "look" at the tree without looking at it? If you know the tree is there, and that it will fall. Do you create a tree in this exercise? It's impossible to say no, since there are so many fallen trees you are surely right. Can you say yes in good faith knowing the tree may not have fallen by your hand? Of course you may.
Events in history can be looked at this same way to produce outcomes. Ideas converge without context or justification if we look for them among the darkness.
