invisible backplane Sounds like romanticized wish fulfillment. You want it to be true, so maybe it is? On the one hand, we know there’s lots of spare empty space within an ordinary atom. We can take a known fact and build on that fact, to inform ourselves of possible details for observed phenomenon. The volume and behavior of degenerate matter represents hypothetical concepts that could be tested. On the other hand, we have unknown unknowns and maybe we can hijack these blindspots and stuff ideas we like inside these cubby holes, even though there’s no way to test for such possibilities, but let’s formulate an untestable hypothesis because we think multiverses and wormholes and reality simulations are cool?
