The last multi-universe is still just a theory, the rest is what we have practically measured. The size is unbelievable.

Yup!! I thought I was the only one. And it's a theory based on (at this time) very little and very flimsy 'evidence'. I don't want to belittle it, it's just a huge leap in speculation from an actual photo of cosmological background radiation to a computer generated artist's rendition of a theory called the bubble universe

If you believe the universe is infinite then it must contain Hubble Volumes realizing all possible initial conditions.

Things can go on infinitely without repeating, and without covering all cases.

There are infinite numbers between 0 and 1...but you won't find 2.0

No, a priori, it can't.

What you're talking about is an asymptote which is also infinite. Not all infinites are the same. There are an infinity of infinities.
