        When recoherence is no longer possible that's a real physical
        change.  The system has evolved.

    Sure.  If you could reverse the outgoing waves and the local universe.


*Since recoherence is always possible, even if astronomically unlikely like many physical macro processes, why do you make the point that there's a real physical change when it's no longer possible (which is never)?  I ask because your comment is confusing. AG*

That's the real physical change.  Outgoing radiation has left at the speed of light out into an expanding universe; it ain't comin' back.  Why is that confusing?
