IANAP, but it calls to mind "Winger's Friend" which was a response to Schrödinger’s Cat that says: imagining a (human) friend of his shut in a lab, measuring a quantum system. He argued it was absurd to say his friend exists in a superposition of having seen and not seen a decay unless and until Wigner opens the lab door. [1] I have seen it come up in the Many Worlds school of thought and reminds me of HHTTG's : The Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal is a vicious wild animal from the planet of Traal, known for its never-ending hunger and its mind-boggling stupidity. One of the main features of the Beast is that if you can't see it, it assumes it can't see you.
