Ok, next question:
Knowing that outside the our level 1 multiverse, we
have eternal chaotic inflation, but:
*Inside* our level 1 multiverse, and depsite its
infinite size, does it not also have a finite time to
go before its demise? And when I say demise, I don't
mean our visible universe, but our entire infinite
level 1 multiverse. Demise being defined here as the
end of stars, galaxies, completion of proton decay,
etc.
