Approach infinite-state? That's like being almost pregnant, something is
either infinite or it's not, "very big" is not even close. A trillion to the trillion's
power is no closer to infinity than the number one is.

For that to be true you'd have to invoke new physics, the last refuge of
a scoundrel if unneeded.
