Bruno, Not at all. The list of all possible things in a real world is NOT infinite. The possibilities are restricted by the intrinsic nature of the quantum vacuum. For example, you can't get an infinite number of different TYPES of particles out of the quantum vacuum. The set is very restricted to those actually possible in the Standard Model...
