The Beyond Comprehension Conjecture -- that there are real things in our world that
humans can't comprehend -- isn't altogether new. It's been raised by various philosophers
over the centuries. One of the earliest references I'm familiar with since the time of the
Enlightenment can be found in John Locke's An Essay Concerning Human Understanding. The
entirety of the brief Introduction is relevant, but Locke's ideas are especially clear in Section 7.
It's definitely worth taking the time to read.
