Hell yeah I love this premise. I've always imagined it in a sci fi far future context, like humanity solves the economy and spreads out to the solar system and somebody gets the idea to do this as the ultimate utopian project, running back the entire history of the Earth as a simulation in order to pluck out people's consciousnesses right before their death and resurrect them to live in the immortal space future.
I highly recommend the game Soma if you haven't played it already. Don't want to spoil too much, but this whole line of conversation reminds me of that game.
Absolutely love that game.
Simon doesn't ever seem to really get what is happening, but I think he can be forgiven considering his situation.
