Which reality? When we do theology or metaphysics, we cannot invoke “reality”, nor “god”, nor “truth” without adding much precision, and what we assume, and what is supposed to be derived. There is no other big BB than elementary arithmetic. That follows immediately from the fact that the notion of computation is an arithmetical notion. A physical computer is an immaterial, arithmetical, computer implemented in some subset of the physical laws. > How this hocus pocus occurs (cause and effect) is more than a bit above my > consciousness, the specific mechanics of this.

Mathematicalism is less wrong than physicalism, once we assume mechanism, but even for the quanta, you need the full mechanist theology (G1*). I might come back on this if people are interested. Tegmark has progressed by using computationalism, but is still not aware that the physical reality is in the head of all universal numbers, as a by-product of incompleteness.
