Not at all! Lemme give you a third option, off the top of my head: Sometime in the future, I invent a pair of machines. One creates universes from nothing. The other is a time machine. I figure I might as well make a closed causal loop, and so I travel back beyond the Planck barrier, and set off my first machine, creating the universe it was made in.
Bam. No infinite regress, and no uncaused cause. Dichotomy destroyed.
