Why is it so ? I'd say at first glance that every configuration of matter is
exemplified an infinity of time. Like I can see a video in 320x240, 640x480,
1024x768, xxxxx, 100000x100000... each time it's the same "footage" but each
version differ with the "accessible" information content of the scene. So for
a specified level of information I could agree that there is only one
configuration... but there should exists in a mathematical MW an infinity of
level.

No, just that you can't conclude that unicorn don't exists only because you've
never seen one... You could conclude with an high certainty that unicorn
don't exist with more evidences... Have you such evidences ? beside that
you've never met Harry Potter ? ;-D
