Maybe we’re just looking at things from fundamentally different angles... I think “existence” is “meaningful”, no matter what, regardless of what our limited perception can register and our brains can interpret as “meaningful” or “meaningless” - so that’s why I saw what you said as nihilistic

Just as an example - a child is born severely severely disabled - to some outside observer (and potentially the individual themselves, depending on the severity of impairment) - their existence is “meaningless” - but I guarantee that in the “full picture” this appearance vanishes, to every “individual party” involved, as the web of connections and impacts is drawn and understood - but that’s just a story that makes sense to me, I’m always looking to hear the stories that make sense to others
