I'm postulating infinite regress because the idea that universes are being 
created and preserved implies an meta-universal support which also must be 
made of some kind of information-theoretic functionality which would have 
its own meta-quantum reasoning for existing. How does having many worlds 
better explain the existence of any world or world-making condition? Mainly 
it buries the problem under a mountain of infinities.
