It's not entirely clear "Energy" is a physical property either. By physical I mean a causal property of a system which is a basic constituent of reality.
For example in E = 1/2mv^2, a particle has kinetic energy in virtue of being matter in motion -- it is motion and matter which are basic. Energy is just a system of accounting which tracks motion in the aggregate over time (with kinetic/potential just being the future/past in the accounting) hence why energy conservation is just a temporal invarience.
When making arguments about the physical properties reality has (eg., whether aspects are continuous) you need to be exceptionally clear what your terms mean, and terminology in physics isnt designed for this.
There are no "information saturated volumes", this is a series of abstractions piled on top of each other.
All the words in this area have quite complex formal definitions that are have quite difficult to unpack semantics, you cannot just go around saying "saturated volumes" -- it is this sort of language which breeds cranks, and pop sci does it with abandon.
This entire discussion is a matter of several PhDs, and to be done only well by people with PhDs in the matter (philosophy of physics), or equivalent research. It's not possible to scrap fragaments of what compusci bloggers say and derive much that's likely to be actually correct.
Nothing in physics is more basic than something else, as there are equivalent formulations in other quantities. Energy and momentum are as real as matter and motion. Matter is bundles of energy exhibiting inertia and motion is just some transformational relationship between phenomena in different areas of space-time. There is nothing "real" about any of this, only what animals like humans have evolved to model directly in their brains.
