I was under the impression those other particles might be a consequence of a deeper mathematical structure?
Such that asking for a universe without the ‘unnecessary’ particles would be kind of like asking for one without ‘unnecessary’ chemical elements?
Well, it might be a consequence of something, but I don’t know of any such math that says that if there is one generation of particles, then there ought to be 3 (or more?).
