Hi Ronald,
I have a severe problem with this entire thread!
What exactly determines the particular properties, such as charge,
angular momentum, mass, etc., of this universe? Why are we assuming that
the choice of what went into the zero net sum is a prior definite and
constrained.
Alberto,
I have one more question.

They are conserved quantities, so if they are zero now it

Of course. But rationality is not just about doing the optimal thing,
