1. The utility of a given premise seems like a great criteria with which to determine its veracity to me. I'm also curious as to what true thing we learn in school that lacks utility, as well as how one derives truth with solipsism as a foundational premise.
2. If we're wrong, literally nothing about our lives changes at all, whatsoever. We still interact with the same false reality. We're still incapable of interacting with whatever real reality might exist out there. The people we interact with are exactly the same, regardless of whether or not they're sapient individuals or persistent, complex delusions. That's how atrociously stupid an idea solipsism really is: it has no bearing whatsoever on anything.
