Yes I could. I chose not to. It is a balance between suspension of disbelieve and narrative simplicity. Moreover, I am not sure how much credence should I put on recent cosmological theories that they will not be updated the future, making my narrative set up obsolete. I also do not want to burden my reader with familiarity of cosmological theories.
Am I not allowed to use such narrative technique to simplify my story and deliver my point? Yes I know it is out of touch with the human condition but I was hoping it would not strain my audiences’ suspension of disbelieve.
The problem is that the unrealistic simplification acts precisely on the factor you’re trying to analyze—falsifiability. If you relax the unrealistic assumption, the point you’re trying to make about falsifiabilty no longer holds.
