"I don't know that it makes sense to argue
that the Sun 'is really' a unit. Perhaps someone can some up with
something for that to mean, but it's not immediately obvious to me
what that would mean."

So the Sun really exists, but it doesn't make sense to you
that it's really a unit. Okay.

It exists, but not really as a unit and doesn't really
have size. Or it really has size, but only because
of the existence of consciousness. Got it.

Anything else, or are we done already?
