Even calling it reality is a reality-chauvinistic name for it. Calling people who don't care about "reality" solipsists is another form of chauvinism.

In fact "reality" is an inappropriate abstraction layer for most of the activities humans want to enjoy - we are forced to repeat the same activities over and over (sleep, eat, travel, exercise), there are security vulnerabilities (risk of death), infrastructure can fail, your exoself program degrades over time and cannot be rebooted (your human body is aging), etc. Over time these vulnerabilities will become inescapable (due to the asymmetric power of attack vs. defend with relativistic kill weapons and orbital mechanics) - the only defense that works will be to have millions of backups and to therefore diffuse the patterns you care about in computronium spread over tiny computers running throughout the solar system.

If we move up to the "metaverse" or to a "scape" we can avoid all of the repetitive activities and focus on what humans actually care about, which is interacting with other humans and to be stimulated in novel, intellectual, and pleasurable ways. Exploring and understanding the nature of physical laws and the universe can be done while still living most of the "human" aspect of our lives in the metaverse - THIS is the appropriate abstraction layer for human interaction. Physical reality is a place only appropriate for the semi-sentient automated infrastructure and robots maintaining all the computronium, and for scientists exploring new frontiers in reality, exploring other solar systems, deep in the ocean, etc.

But for most people, we just live in a city with other humans. We don't "explore". We just want to have a pleasant life while interacting with other humans. We can do this entirely in a simulation. And it will be much better in every way.
