IIUC, it's based on the assumption that the universe is infinite in spatial and temporal extent, but this is mistaken. Our universe, by which I mean our bubble, is finite. We know that by applying basic logic. First, since nothing can become infinite via a finite process, which is implied by the finite age of the universe. So if the universe is spatially infinite, that must be its initial condition when it came into being with the Big Bang. But that would require adding a singularity of sorts to the usual concept of the BB; namely, that at its inception, it became infinite in spatial extent instantaneously. This hypothesis must be rejected for the same reason we regard theories with infinities as incorrect when they make such predictions. AG
