I don't think he thinks it is complete (which it isn't, I totally agree there), just much better than the classical explanations that seem to reduce us all to a sophisticated and highly organized pile of mindless particles. In the end his process zero, which is connected with our choices, is a postulate. But some postulate is needed anyway, and I think it is worth exploring.

It is the only physical theory I know of that also can serve as a theoretical foundation for some of the phenomena discussed in this forum.
