I am not sure you are 100% serious on this, but the question is very interesting, so I
will make some comments, which might not been taken 100% seriously.
At first, we might say that any evidence that something is finite hereby already look
like a refutation of comp, and this basically at the start, by taking seriously the FPI
on *all* true sigma_1 sentences (which I recall somehow emulate the universal dovetailing).
So, the apparent existence of a finite past might be a trouble for the computationalist
hypothesis, below the substitution level, a first person plural reality should look like
a superposition of more and more ever "possible states", up to the still possible
inflation of "white rabbits".
The concordance model of cosmogony (including gravity waves influencing the CMB) doesn't
imply a finite past - only a finite past for this universe.
