She was right to avoid it, even if she knew of it; Last Thursdayism doesn't answer the question, it just makes a (teensy-bit smug) point about epistemology. I think she does a good job of explaining why it's not scientifically possible to refute the idea, but offering a philosophical reason it's not satisfying.
If the Almighty spawns worlds like Minecraft, and controls the sliders of time and physics, it's not clear how we Steves can ever figure out how our world was really spawned -- apart from direct intervention.
