    ### But I thought that as the entropy of the universe increases, the amount
    of information needed to describe it also increases. The state of the
    universe at 10e-43 was very simple, but with every second you need to use
    more bits to describe the evolving entity. Splitting adds to the amount of
    data contained in the whole ensemble of universes, doesn't it?
