The important part is the paradoxical nature of that a bolzmann brain, as far as the universes lifespan is concerned, is more likely to emerge than a habitable universe.
It’s simple maths. There’s a higher chance that you’re a bolzmann brain than real
I wouldn’t consider it simple math, nor accurate math.
It is a bold statement that makes assumptions about underlying probabilities that are simply impossible to quantify realistically. Even more so as the theory was developed well before computers and human space exploration.
It is an intriguing thought experiment, but not an established scientific theory.
Shh it will all be over in a femtosecond (your structure can not be maintained longer than one instance of sentience before it dissipates back into a cloud of gasses)
Not necessarily, Random fluctuations could also produce a structure in which the Boltzmann brain could survive. Which could give it plenty of time to imagine our shitty universe.
Bolzmann brain moment.

Yeah, this bit always gets me too when people say that we’re statistically almost certain to live in a simulation.
Ah, statistics. The branch of mathematics famous for being reliable and accurate when extrapolating from a single point of data.
Oh man, why couldn’t my bolzmann brain construct a better reality?
Shh it will all be over in a femtosecond (your structure can not be maintained longer than one instance of sentience before it dissipates back into a cloud of gasses)
Finally the sweet release of dissipation

If you were a Bolzmann brain, your memories of reality would likely be much less consistent, probably akin to a dream.
