When we wade into the idea of whether or not we're living in a simulated universe, we're wading into Rumsfeldan territory: those things we do not know we do not know. Personally, I find God a lot more elegant than the Matrix, but neither are within our epistemic horizons.
I think anyone who says otherwise is vastly overestimating the capacity of human knowledge. And besides, wouldn't the universe containing a simulated universe be even more complicated?
