It seems to me, @evantthompson, that the essential structures of consciousness disclosed by Husserl's epoche are those truths invariant under the simulation hypothesis. Contemplating SH also seems closely related to daytime dream yoga practices. Am I misguided?
So, for these reasons, I don't think the SH helps with understanding consciousness either via the epoché or dream yoga

I was thinking of "simulation" as a "modern" addition to Longchenpa's 8 similes of illusion, thus useful in dream yoga. True, as stated SH is metaphysics, but I was using it as a means to clarifying epoche as "...being as phenomenon (appearance)."

So to avoid the non-phenomenological metaphysics, perhaps instead of "simulation hypothesis", I would say "simulation metaphor."
