QM has it's limits, and whatever stems from it such as parallel universes, is pure fantasy.
Once the parameters of space and time are observed to be flexible, then there is always the imagination. But without knowing the contexts of space and time...it is just speculation.
Since space and time are products of the the supposed BB, it would be reasonable to speculate that infinite properties are contextual to finite ones, and it is just as reasonable to think that nothing/zero is a context.
The former makes our material universe the lesser article in terms of power, and the latter the greater.
With the observation of expected dark matter and other filler items, we soon admitted that the naturally observable universe is relatively insignificant to other forces.
The idea of infinite properties of space and time is a trend due to these findings, but it is possible that a finite system has the illusion of infinity, just as much as a hamster in a wheel has an endless road, without being a cruel trick.
Given that everything we have seen is consistent with QM, exactly where are those limits? Care to detail why the limits are where you say?
We know that QM is counter to intuition in many ways. In particular, it is probabilistic and not deterministic and it is not a realist theory: things do not have definite properties unless observed. But those have both been verified extensively.
