Well, DontTalk would be much better to ask
However, as far as I understand, a countable infinity can be defined by math, and if you multiply it by 0, it gives 0 as a result, whereas an uncountable infinity cannot be defined by math, and if you multiply it by 0, it can give a higher than 0 result.
I do not think that we can usually determine whether a countable or uncountable number of universes have been destroyed or created, unless this is explicitly stated. However, we tend to err on the side of caution, and assume a regular 2-A result.

This thread have discussed a bit about this.
Here are 2 definitions I've found for countably and uncountably.
For an arithmetical sample, natural, integer and rational sets are all countably finite sets, while the number of real contained between an interval [0; 1] (or basically any no null intervals) is uncountably infinite.
For a geometrical sample, you'll draw a countably infinite number of points if you draw a point per sec for an endless time spawn. Actually, the result would be the same even if you could draw a coutably infinite number of points per second for an endless time spawn. But you can easly draw an uncountably infinite number of points just dy drawing a small segment. In fact, any segment with a length > 0 contain an uncoutably infinite number of points.
