Although the grid you made does seem a bit misleading and weirdly made since it doesnt fully capture the true extent of our scenario, its manageable.
ur diagram is presupposing that each universe is an infinite path, even though its not. Even if we appeal to ur understanding you blatantly index universes with finite labels. which suggests its countable

What they gave is like, the text book definition of what an Uncountable set is.

By "every multiverse" are you refering to the hallways?

Hellscream · Apr 6, 2026

That proof is correct, but it only applies to sets of infinite sequences.

The issue is that what you've described so far looks like finite branching that keeps going forever, not actual infinite-length paths. Labels like 1, 1.1, 1.1.1, etc. are still finite sequences, even if the process continues indefinitely, and the set of all finite sequences is still countable.

Cantor's diagonal argument only applies if individual paths are actually infinite in length (like true infinite decimals or binary sequences). So before that proof applies here, you'd need to show that infinite-length chains actually exist in the structure, not just that branching keeps happening.

Edit: either way, i don't care that much about this thread.

Yeah, including also the "base multiverse" from where these hallways all generate from.

It does exist by the fact that there is not just a single pony that makes all of these branches, but infinite ponies already do exist in the base multiverse, though.

Ik what Qawself above said is evidence too, but wanted to make this clear.

This does not really address the key issue, though.

Even an infinite number of ponies can result only in infinite width; it will never have infinite depth. The whole point of Cantor’s proof was infinite-length chains, rather than infinite number of starts of chains.

Even with each step adding another finite-level branch to the end (as 1 → 1.1 → 1.1.1 → etc.), this still results in finite-length chains and thus in countability of the set of branches in consideration.

Hence, the true question is whether any particular chain ever goes on for infinity.

Umm I don't know jack about the verse so pardon me for speaking out of turn but you aren't understanding what Hell is trying to say.
The sequence Rein mentioned presupposes that the chain continues on Infinitely i.e Infinite depth

Reiner04 said:
U1: 1 → 1.1 → 1.1.1 → 1.1.1.1 → …
U2: 1 → 1.2 → 1.2.1 → 1.2.1.1 → …
U3: 2 → 2.1 → 2.1.1 → 2.1.1.1 → …
U4: 1 → 1.1 → 1.1.2 → 1.1.2.1 → …

U1 extends Infinitely and there's Infinite U as In U={1,2,3,4....∞}
What everyone is asking you to prove is that this presupposition is warranted in this case as in U1 actually extends Infinitely and U contains Infinite elements.

That is not an issue related to what infinity^infinity is, it's more an issue of the verse about whether the ponies in the infinite hallways also have their own version of that hallway and so on, something that's already on discussion.

Robot972 · Apr 6, 2026

I'll be honest, I think infinite dream loop requires too much extrapolation to be viable. But beyond that, I really don't buy dream world or storyworld characters possessing a mindscape in the first place, much less a hallway.

Storyworld characters are the easiest to address. Simply putting it, they are lines of text that require magic to be given physical form. Even when dragged into the real world, they don't stop acting as they would in their story so I'd frankly be willing to say they're no more sapient than a chat bot uploaded to a robot body. Beyond that, there's no reason they would have a hallway. They do not possess infinite pasts, presents, or futures like real world beings do. Everything they are and ever will be is written on that page, unless specifically altered via magic.

And this goes as far as storyworld itself being treated as an infinite multiverse. Nothing exists beyond what is written on paper. Even in a story about exploring space, the only thing that exists is what's described, inherently making the worlds less than universe-sized.

The dream world faces similar issues. The Pony of Shadows is the sole exception to dream entities demonstrating sapience, but he's easily explained by the fact it was Stygian's dream Luna was visiting, and therefore also the Pony of Shadows' dream as they are one in the same. The literal only other dream entity you could argue being sapient is the Tantabus, but even it is only following the rules which were set upon it. It's not thinking beyond that base function.

When it comes to hallways, there's 0 reason to assume a dream is capable of dreaming. The entire purpose of the hallway's infinite dreams is that each explores a specific past/present/future. By their very nature they are not branching beyond that

PonePoster said:
I'm a little late, but essentially each doorway leads to a different choice/future/timeline. All choices, which would include stuff like Luna herself delving into a person's dreams, and Infinite Hallways... like she did with Discord. She could have just as easily chosen to go to another pony's Infinite Hallway, like Celestia's, or Twilight's, or anyone's. It's something she has had experience with, and even points out that everyone has one. This choice to walk into Discord's dreams and show him the Infinite Hallway, would just itself be included as another doorway there, and the Luna within this future would also have her own Infinite Hallway where this choice is just a doorway there, and so on and so forth forever. These choices are actual worlds, with actual beings that would also dream, since Luna exists within them to moderate their dreams and so on

I never disagreed with each pony having an infinite hallway. I just don't think there's any evidence that dream entities, who fundamentally do not exist beyond the specific dream's set of events, have their own infinite hallway

I buy every pony having their own infinite hallway. I buy every door in those hallways leading to another infinite hallway. What I’m more on the fence about, are those branches continuing infinitely, the only source for that seems to be Luna saying “there’s always a hallway”, which seems a little vague, like do we know she has gone through an infinite chain of door checking to confirm that.

People are using mathematical jargon like crazy in this thread, when I just think having a simpler to read explanation fits more. I do agree with Low 1-C and PonePoster's summary, the best one I've seen for this verse I'm not a fan of.

But I think an explanation put somewhere on the page should be "Choices are quite literally an element of the cosmology that exist beyond the structure of 2-A multiverses, and create a Low 1-C equivalent structure with an even greater amount of multiverses."

I think that has been proven, although exact mathematics for that do need to be decided on.

If you made this clear from the start instead of spamming mathematical terms we could've avoided this whole discussion.

You were the one attacking everyone's explanation by constantly repeating "none of this is uncountable" or "it's just additive or multiplicative, not exponential", so I indeed am calling you out on that.

First you say that you gotta "wait for mods", then "mods are all wrong".

Imma be fr this "woe is me" attitude is so annoying. The actual opposition thus far is questioning whether the ponies in these alternate futures in the hallway also have their own hallways, not whatever you are doing.

People already do have clear the mathematics behind why it's Low 1-C (aka @Reiner04's post), it's if the verse actually follows it to the letter what's in contentious.

It's a logical conclusion. Since all choices and all futures exist with the Infinite Hallway, naturally Luna's decision to explore Discord's is already a future/doorway there. This "Dream Luna" therefore can explore this "Dream Infinite Hallway" as she does the normal one, and look within any "Dream Doorway" within, and since that is possible then it just goes on, forever. Luna exists within these futures, and her whole duty is to monitor dreams, that these "dream" ponies have, etc

Besides, again, the entities in dreams do exist, and are tangible. Dreams themselves are whole physical spaces that ponies can just go to physically

If Low 1-C is acceptable based on each door in the infinite hallway branching out into another set of infinite doors, which all branch out into another set of infinite doors, for an indeterminate amount of repetitions, then a flat Low 1-C sounds fine. If the amount of repetitions of the above cycle has to be infinite outright, then I’m more erring on possibly Low 1-C.
