Lol, good joke but wrong, even existing an infinite number of Universe, to be stables they need a infinite number of physical conditions, if not they can’t exist. A multiverse, even if there are formong an infinite number of universes, most of them are destroyed in the same moment when are not present this conditions, even so it can exist an infinite number of survivor universes with the correct conditions (∞/n = ∞), paradox conditions are not among these (apart of the infinite itself, used in physics)
It’s a common trend for people that don’t understand that infinite possibilities do not mean every possibility.
The way I usually explain this to people is that the quantity of even number is also infinite, but that doesn’t mean you’ll ever find a value of three in that infinite range.
Right, in any case, infinity is only a manageable magnitude in mathematics, but not in physics where it represents a nightmare and headaches.
In physics, only an indeterminate magnitude can be accepted, which can be very large or also very small, but only up to a certain limit. In physics, infinity and absolute nothingness can’t exist.
Nah there’s definitely different universes/timelines in star trek. The series just have the one main timeline they follow.

In TNG theres the dark Romulan war timeline in which Yar doesn’t die in that confrontation with the evil tar pit guy and goes on to prevent war with the Romulans, switching us back to the main timeline where the war doesn’t happen but Yar’s descendant is a Romulan warlord.
I think this is the same timeline in DS9 where evil Kira and all of them exist. It’s mentioned in DS9 that the Kirk in this timeline also switched places with the Kirk in the main timeline at some point but I didn’t watch TOS so I cannot confirm.
The final season of Lower Decks was also a huge step into multiverse theory. So perhaps there is more to come.
Yeah! Until lower decks there was only ever the “mirror universe” (and a few alternate timeline shenanigans that were never clearly a different universe, just a different ‘time line’.)

Multiverse theory does not necessarily mean infinite universes to cover all possibilities, just multiple universes.

Star Trek: Just the two, thanks

I want lower decks back 😞
