If you take a 10^55 gram proton and blow it up to cosmological scale, you are left with the exact energy density of cosmological constant/dark energy. The big bang = the big pop - a proton escaping a mother Universe and expanding. Paper and math in comment

starting to see more and more why its called the spacememory network. without recollection, how do you keep the universe coherent/up to date about itself? and to recollect, you need time to travel backwards, that is, for the vacuum to polarize and maintain space-time as a flowing continuum. if there was no mechanism allowing ftl, then singularity wouldn't ever form because mass wouldnt be able to cancel into a negative state. mass in the universe would just get heavier and heavier like a train adding more cargo without anywhere to unload. matter wouldn't be stable and orbits would be all clunky. the tachyon condensation of the early universe wouldn't have formed in the first place.
