I'm afraid with my limited knowledge I may wind up asking more questions for clarification than helping to answer the original but my interest is peaked here:

Firstly, I'm wondering if I understand the original concept correctly in that Seb was wondering if perhaps other universes encompassed ours in some kind of eliptical spheroid formation... I have a hard time believing in this idea for a number of reasons but let's just say that Copernicus was right but on a FAR grander scale than he realized for the sake of argument.

In that case, doesn't it make sense that rather than our universe being the only one affected, all of these universes within the elipse would also be drawn into unusual shapes to compensate for such an awkward arrangement? Going further on this thought; wouldn't the entirety of this multiverse be ever changing in form as a result? It seems to me that in the end, just like air pressure, all of this would have to "balance out" into a more neutral state until the entire grouping became stable.

However, I must revert to my original answer in that our universe being central to this multiverse seems a bit ego-centric.

To compound this viewpoint, if such a grouping of multiverses existed it only makes sense to conclude that more groupings exist outside of such a grouping in an endless parade of clusters. Therefore we wind up with a concept of multimultimultimultimultiverses and so on and so forth. All of which would have to be affecting each other. Once again this raises the point of "Balancing Out".

Of course I'm not opposed to the concept of multiverses at all. But I'm not sure I agree with this interpretation of their interaction.

...I think..... Mind you, I'm no astrophysicist. (just a 21 year old amateur with no college degrees) haha.
