Why is Occam's razor called a razor?
Occam's razor is used as a heuristic, or "rule of thumb" to guide scientists in developing theoretical models. The term "razor" refers to the "shaving away" of unnecessary assumptions when distinguishing between two theories.
Yes, consciousness is essentially proof of God (or the simulation hypothesis)

The End of Quantum Physics
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9062808/
In terms of a religious perspective on quantum physics and spirituality, the most popular scientist / thinker today is Dr. Wolfgang Smith, and he single handedly in the last 10 years has put the whole scientific community in a bit of a disarray & quagmire.
Allah Knows Best....
Legendary reclusive genius Wolfgang Smith demonstrates on shockingly obvious grounds the dead end at which physics has arrived, and how we can return, at last, to the real world.

Drawing from René Descartes’ (1596–1650) in “Treatise of Man” where he argues that the pineal gland is the interface between the physical brain and the non-physical mind.
"Either mathematics is too big for the human mind, or the human mind is more than a machine."

A physicist, an engineer, and a psychologist are called in as consultants to a dairy farm whose production has been below par. Each is given time to inspect the details of the operation before making a report.
The first to be called is the engineer, who states: “The size of the stalls for the cattle should be decreased. Efficiency could be improved if the cows were more closely packed, with a net allotment of 275 cubic feet per cow. Also, the diameter of the milking tubes should be increased by 4 percent to allow for a greater average flow rate during the milking periods”.
The next to report is the psychologist, who proposes: “The inside of the barn should be painted green. This is a more mellow color than brown and should help induce greater milk flow. Also, more trees should be planted in the fields to add diversity to the scenery for the cattle during grazing, to reduce boredom”.
Finally, the physicist is called upon. He asks for a blackboard and then draws a circle. He begins: “Assume the cow is a sphere....”.
In the case of tides, the double bulge tidal model may be the equivalent of a spherical cow, but I think can still be a reasonable starting point for discussing tides.
For a short article arguing that overly simplistic models can still be useful in physics,

Too much icicle weight caused damage to the HVAC System on the Women side of the Mosque. Given that these icicles (big icicle) measurements were 8 feet vertical (up and down) and 4 feet horizontal (side by side), how much did it weigh?
The shape of the icicle (e.g., cylindrical, conical) influences its volume and therefore its weight.
The density of ice is around 917 kg/m³, but it can vary slightly depending on factors like air bubbles and impurities.
Knowing the thickness of the icicle (cross-sectional area) allows us to calculate its volume, which is important for estimating its weight.

The mule is a cross between a female horse and a male donkey, and the hinny is a cross between a female donkey and a male horse. The males of both crosses show abnormalities of chromosome pairing at the pachytene stage of meiotic prophase, and little or no mature spermatozoa are produced. Thus the males are infertile. A jackass is a male donkey.

Well old Mr. Johnson had troubles of his ownHe had an
old, yellow cat,
that wouldn't leave his home
He tried and he tried to get the cat away
He gave it to a man that was really far away...
But the cat came back the very next day
Oh the cat came back, no he thought it was a goner
but the cat came back, he just wouldn't stay
no way, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no,
The man around the corner said he'd shoot the cat out of
sight.
so he loaded up his shotgun with nails and dynamite
He waited and he waited for the cat to come around
But 97 pieces of that man was all they found...
But the cat cam back the very next day
Oh the cat came back, no he thought it was a goner
but the cat came back, he just wouldn't stay
no way, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
(guitar solo)
But the cat cam back the very next day
Oh the cat came back, no he thought it was a goner
but the cat came back, he just wouldn't stay
no way, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no-o
