        All that's "infinitesimally tiny" is the visible universe. 
        You must know that the Friedmann equation just defines the
        dynamics of a scale factor, not a size.


    *Are you claiming the visible universe at the BB was
    infinitesimally tiny, but the non visible part was infinitely
    large (mathematically flat), or huge (asymptotically flat)? AG *


*Bruce says the universe is always flat if k=1. *

k=0

*How can it be everywhere flat if there's a region which is infinitely tiny; hence not flat in the visible region? *

?? How does a region being tiny keep it from being a tiny region of something flat?

*How are we to imagine this? TIA, AG *
