Is it possible we are living in a pressurized system where what we see as matter is actually space and what we see as space is actually matter?

We accept that matter can pull on matter even if we don't know how it works and it appears impossible.  It’s action a distance.  We see it all the time - in magnets, gravity, and the way common objects are held together (atoms do not touch).  It's easy to accept what we see as fact.  But how can matter affect matter from a distance?  Can you imagine a way?  I can’t.  However, if we are in a pressurized system, matter can push matter over a distance to cause and create everything we have in the universe without the unimaginable, and impossible, action at a distance.

If it’s possible that we could be fooled and space and matter are, in fact, completely switched without our knowing, then, in theory, there should be a 50% chance we have the right view and a 50% chance that we have the wrong view.  So this deserves your time.

It doesn’t - all known physics obeys locality. What happens is rather that changes in one system that affect another are mediated by various kinds of fields. For example, the presence of electric charges implies the presence of an accompanying electromagnetic field, which extends throughout spacetime and thus affects other (distant) electric charges. 

This has all been worked out in detail - electromagnetism, strong and weak interactions are well described by quantum field theory, whereas gravity is described by General Relativity (which is also a field theory, but of a different type). There are no ‘actions at a distance’, in the sense of non-local effects.

As Markus says, all of physics is local.

Why it is local is a mystery.

Whether it is local is not.

Nature doesn’t care whether you can imagine it or not. It still happens.

You need to present a model, i.e. have the ability too make specific predictions.
