It’s a pre-existing phenomenon.

We don't know that.

Consciousness existing everywhere is the simplest explanation that fits the known fact: that consciousness exists here.

Well we only know that we are conscious ourselves, there are no actual proof that anyone else is conscious. I mean it's probable, but not proven.

So the only thing I can be sure about is that I am conscious, not that anyone else is.
