There's the clue. In the practical overview of creation, if the entire event from beginning to end is time-compressed then locally speaking it is but a passing phenomenon -- new at its periphery, old in the "WMAP Cold Spot". If creation simply peters out and everything in existence is ultimately returned to the ether of timelessness then conceivably everything around us and ourselves are shrinking all the time as we are passing slowly out of existence. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if the mathematics corroborated this type of reality.

In all serious, you have contributed some briliant material regarding the ambiguity of the large red shift. When generalised into the framework of a Hilbert Space it should throw everything together into some kind of TOE.
