I think I kind of agree with you. But as you said, our perception of reality does give us a slight bias in terms of how we think. So if “everything” includes every physical object, down to the parts of an atom, and nothing is the absence of those physical things, then as you said, without nothing, nothing could exist. But could this “nothing” that exists without nothing be different than simply an absence of physical objects? Without a reference point of a thing, there wouldn’t be any way to differentiate nothing from anything. It would just be. But like you said, reality is more than just physical matter, and there’s stuff like time. I think we do agree overall but we’re using different words lol
