"13.7 billion years in the past, both density and temperature become infinite."
This seems like an article of faith. In mathematics, I guess. At any rate, I see a lack of anything resembling evidence that such a state is even possible. Let alone that everything we do observe is the inevitable result of it. Infinite "density and temperature"? We've not seen or measured anything like this. Nor will we, ever. Why have we 'bet the farm' on it?
The BB solved some problems when it was proposed, IIRC. Worth following up on. But if it's getting in the way of a better hypothesis, then I'd like to hear about that.
