It's not that their physical bodies don't exist. It's just that, they are not a separate consciousness from your own. And you are not your body either, in this model of reality. All humans and everything else in the Universe supposedly has only one consciousness, and exists only within that consciousness.
So observing any fact about reality is in fact the act of creating that reality. So asking "why is reality like this?" is absurd, since the moment you ask this question, reality will become like this, thus answering your question. It's like this, because you asked why Or simply, "because"
What would mean, in your opinion, to keep subjective and objective perspectives parallel ?
