    I have to believe an experienced holodeck user would be able to detect some of the telltale signs pretty easily. Like replicated food, if you see it enough you probably notice “holodeck vase #5” showing up scattered around the background of scenes as clutter. Or even minor visual distortions where it switches from 3d to the false horizon.

      I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I randomly rewatched ‘Ship in a Bottle’ and even Data only recognizes they’re still in a simulation due to a blank transporter log. No visual clues, no glitch in the matrix, an empty log that could have been empty for any other reason.
