What question did this study set out to answer?

The work proposes that the ultimate state of the universe is defined by zero distinguishability rather than zero energy on a quantum substrate, examining the feasibility of several alternative cosmological mechanisms.

Theoretical analysis evaluates conjectures on quantum distinguishability against established physical theorems, highlighting key mechanistic constraints and refutations.

Key Points

The work proposes that the ultimate state of the universe is defined by zero distinguishability rather than zero energy on a quantum substrate, examining the feasibility of several alternative cosmological mechanisms.
Tested qualitative conjecture questions against a formal constraint-mapping program and established cosmological models.
Evaluated proposed alternative mechanisms for cosmic inflation and metric expansion against standard physical theorems and observational astrophysics limits.
Most candidate consequences were excluded; the proposed endpoint sits in stated tension with standard de Sitter cosmic no-hair attractors.
An entanglement-mediated alternative to cosmic inflation was ruled out by the no-signaling theorem and the Kibble mechanism.
A black-hole-graining model for metric expansion was refuted by supernova time dilation, cosmic microwave background blackbody spectra, and primordial black hole abundance constraints.
