The theory that we live in a simulation involves simulants running their own simulations; wouldn't that require impossibly more resources for the main sim?

The theory, which I probably misunderstand because I have a similar level of education to a macaque, states that because a simulated world would eventually develop to the point where it creates its own simulations, it's then just a matter of probability that we are in a simulation.
