why do you say an infinite plane would be better?
replied 2284d
More usable space. Better suited to life. At least better than mostly empty and unlivable space. This is assuming a godly creator who can do create the universe as anything.
replied 2284d
yeah, of course. would be really easy to just go off & do your own thing / get away from everyone else.
replied 2284d
Essentially if there was a godly creator they would be a Flat Earther if they were smarter. In the real world though Fat Earthers are wrong, and the globe disproves intelligent design.

Might also be limits? Consider making our world like designing a video game. Could literally anything be designed or would there be some universal limits?
replied 2284d
I guess if we imply a limited creator. Depends on if they make the laws of physics, or if they are constrained by them.
replied 2284d
yeah, guess that's what I was getting at. like if you say you can build an infinite plane then how do you change gravity to allow that? you know?
replied 2284d
lol interesting thought! there could be benefits to designing a round earth. eg letting organisms evolve/advance in more relative isolation.
replied 2284d
Those benefits work in a universe that is hands off. A creator should have been able to come up with a better system than one that lead to most species becoming extinct.

I agree there are optimizations to be made, but every optimization could break something else. (eg allow FTL, now have to deal with time travel or something)
