But most materialistic-minded science seems to dismiss it as a 'brain thing' relying heavily on psychology theory to explain it away.
Add to that the similar way people react to it in my life (same as yours, "Yeah. It happens... it's weird.... whatever.) And it kind of reinforces that a) no on cares, b) no one has a clue, and c) "pay no attention to the man behind the curtain."
I can accept that the mind/brain relationship 'creates' impressions which echo in our experiences, but the truth is it doesn't explain "everything" about deja vu. And dismissing it as a purely physiological phenomenon might be not doing justice to the countless experiences it has affected.
Wow, I think you are spot on that it is not something that can be explained away so easily with science, like a mysterious quirk.
I have always been extremely gifted with my imagination, art and creativity more so than anyone in my whole family and have always been the odd one out with a broader range of speech and problem solving capabilities so i just thought i got deja vu all the time because my brain was wired differently than others.
Side note: I suspect my broad vocabulary was from playing too many videogames back in the day where in-game speech wasn't a thing and we had to read everything.

A few years ago I decided to try to remember the first I was in that "scene" and I started noticing small differences. Most things were the same, but things like the position of an object on a table were different, in one case the object was there, in the other it wasn't.
I didn't reach any conclusion about it.
What doesn't it explain?
I know what you mean.
The last few times it happened to me i tried to remember certain things but there were small differences like the placement of objects and the like but it is such a surprising moment when the deja vu happens i'm too busy being caught off-guard and in the moment.
It's nice to know of others with deja vu experiences, it makes me feel at ease somehow.
