Maybe it just seems obviously wrong. Just like modus ponens seems obviously right.
This is not my point of view, to be upfront, but I'm curious what you would say to me if it was. Why can't a rational person maintain that position?

Obviously, explanations exist. As otherwise, there would be no need to answer "why" questions. Our search for underlying explanations presumes those explanations exist. We can say on paper that we don't believe in explanations, but we operate our lives with this presumption of the PSR.
