Yes, because the additional dimensions of string theory are nothing but ordinary aspects of our universe. The point in string theory is to see through the trick they are not aware of playing on themselves. What it basically comes down to is that our human brain can create concepts, Dipayankar, and some of them can get quite complicated. String theorists mention they have discovered additional dimensions, but in reality they are only pointing to specific aspects of the normal dimensions already covered. As such, they have real additional aspects, but no additional dimensions.
The only two dimensions I have in the pentaist theory of everything are actually behaving much like two mirrors placed in front of each other. I bet you have seen something similar at a fair. Two mirrors theoretically contain infinity, because one mirror mirroring the other mirror make an infinite numbers of mirrors line up. One could say, that is perfection.
Still, that theoretically possible image does not exist, because we have to have an eye exactly in the center of the picture seeing both mirrors mirroring infinitely. If your eye is not exactly in the mirror's center, the tunnel of mirrors is bent in one direction, blocking the view on the center of the tunnel. The eye can never be in the center of one mirror, and can therefore not see the endless tunnel of mirrored mirrors. If you want you can cut a tiny hole in the middle of one of the mirrors and kind of see the infinite tunnel. But truly in the center of the tunnel you are then looking at the reflection of the little hole and your eye peaking through it.
In the dimensional world of the pentaist theory of everything, all we have are two mirrors; not three, not ten or eleven, not an infinite number of mirrors. Two mirrors plus an eye that can get confused making the distinction between the real two mirrors and the many others it really sees, but that are nothing else but the reflections of the two.
