It wasn’t really a riff beyond using your mother/child format. The similarity is what prompted me to add it. It’s adapted from a piece and concept called “Utopias” that I’ll probably never publish. It’s a Utopian vision. I do sometimes envision having a human in charge, or at least having been in charge of all the judgment calls made in choosing the singleton’s alignment. I would find not knowing who’s in charge slightly creepy, but that’s it.
I’m not sure how yours is creepy? Is it in the idea that all the worst universes also exist?

I did not catch the reference in yours.
Yes, and also just that I find it a little creepy/alien to imagine a young child that could be that good at math.
