And if youre making a joke, its lost on me. Sorry.
To me, this whole scientific branch is basically someone smoking a joint and saying, "It's all. . . circles in circles in circles, maaaannnn!"
That being said, fractals. There's no reason why you couldn't have universes nested inside super-universes. There's also no reason why every singularity in OUR universe might not itself be a complete universe in its own right. Who knows? Maybe at the heart of every subatomic particle is an entire dimension. There's really no limit to what might constitute reality.
But at some point you have to stop smoking that joint and ask. . . what seems to be the case based on what we can currently observe? And I'm 99% sure that the multiverse theory is purely mathematical rather than scientific.
It seems to me this whole branch really reflects the fact that until quantum mechanics, mathematics really serves mainly to validate which of the many possible explanations which our brains, condition to cognitate based on our macroscopic experiences accumulated over perhaps 500 million years of neurological evolution, can fall back on its hardware and firmware to visualize before any final math.
Once we reached quantum mechanics, we appear to have exceeded the utmost limits of our natural firm and hardware to visualize. So math is becomes our main way forward.
Maybe in another 150,000 years, we can develop a innate capacity to visualize quantum mechanism before any math.
