This bothers me also, it's like every tiny quantum event creates a Big Bang in a new dimension. There is information duplication as well. Without a way to communicate between dimensions there would seem to be absolutely no way to test this theory. Maybe every quantum event is a communication? And why a new universe for every event? Why not just two universes? And how does time fit in? Maybe the second universe would be the first universe running backwards in time? The energy and information duplication seems too extreme. Could new dimensions eventually fill all possible dimensions and start to collide or overlap? Maybe our universe is a superposition of all dimensions?
- bee_rider 5y agoI think that last bit is part of it -- the idea is that really there ought to be a wavefunction for the whole universe, so it is fine for the universe to be in a superposition (deemed the multiverse).
