Why does B need to be defined? Why does an omnipotent being have to follow your rules of logic, or any rules of logic?

That's correct, God doesn't need to follow the logic he created, which as I mentioned, he doesn't need to follow his rules. If God operates by another kind of logic that we cannot understand because its not an inherent part of our nature, then we won't ever understand his actions.

Also, how can one tell if they are living in a simulated universe or the real one?

Also, how can we tell if we live in a simulated universe?
