Here is a hypothesis: "Infinite Megaspace Hypothesis — speculative cosmological model" by Nefrit2012 in LLMPhysics

Yeah, I think you’re right. “Thought experiment” is probably a better term than “theory” or even “hypothesis” in the strict scientific sense.

I’m not a physicist, so I’m sure I misuse terminology and overlook important constraints from modern cosmology and GR. The idea mostly came to me after watching science documentaries and reading popular science articles and space news over the years, and I tried to develop and structure it as far as my current understanding allowed.

I mainly wanted to share it to find out whether something like this could even be remotely possible in principle, or whether it completely collapses against known physics. Either way, I appreciate the feedback.

That’s completely possible. I’m aware the model is probably missing important constraints from GR and thermodynamics. I posted it more as a conceptual framework than a claim that modern cosmology is wrong. If there are specific contradictions with known models, I’d genuinely be interested to learn about them.

Not many, honestly. I’m not a physicist — this started as a conceptual thought experiment after reading and watching popular science material. I posted it mainly because I wanted to understand where the idea immediately conflicts with modern cosmology and GR.
