Rather, there are things that exist necessarily: logical laws, truth, properties of numbers, etc. Some of these truths and number relations concern and define all computational histories, and the appearance of a physical reality is a result of these computations creating consciousness observers.

But you're casually confounding different sense of "exist". Logical laws, number, etc are derivative on language. They don't "exist" physically. The logicians meaning of exist is just to satisfy a predicate. Any sensible discussion of "exist"needs to start with recognizing it has several different meanings.
