This is essentially a continuation of the upgrade attempted by @Fixxed a while back, albeit with only the recent argumentation so as to keep it short and easy to follow. The main reasoning starts from here for anyone wanting the full context.
To summarize, all of the nine realms exist within the same "physical space", that being the World Tree, acting as separate planes of existence to each other, despite also being separated on the branches of the Yggdrasil. One of the main developers, Matt Sophos, further clarifies the nature of the realms on his interview with Game Informer, where he repeats that all of the realms are separate dimensions existing within the same physical space and further explains that if you went to Egypt or a country in Alfheim, and you crossed over a portal to another realm from that point, such as Niflheim, you’d be geographically on Niflheim’s version of Egypt. All of this and Yggdrasil's nature is elaborated on the explanation page.
So, they're 4-dimensional space-times that are parallel, in that they never actually meet regardless of any movement one makes in any one of their directions, with their own time axes (On top of the information in the above explanation page, Realm Shifts distort both space and time and do this on the scale of the whole realm but don't affect any other. Even the high Vanir Gods stopping and messing with time in their own realm didn't inundate the rest of the inhabitants of the World Tree). Yet, they're all displaced across a higher-order space (the Realm Between Realms) and the Yggdrasil treats it as the main void it inhabits and has its branches stretch infinitely throughout it.
As such, the Yggdrasil would be a structure that occupies the center of the spiritual void of the Realm Between Realms, which exists outside all of the Nine Realms and acts as a higher order space that these parallel 4-dimensional realities are displaced across, making it a Low 1-C void. As the Yggdrasil has its branches stretch out infinitely through said void, it'd also be a Low 1-C structure.
Agree with Low 1-C Yggdrasil: 0
Disagree with Low 1-C Yggdrasil: 4 - KLOL506, Elizhaa, Qawsedf, DontTalkDT, Lonkitt, DarkDragonMedeus
Agree with 2-A: 3- Planck69, Elizhaa, Qawsedf (Needs more input and elaboration from DT and Ultima as new info came to light)
Disagree with 2-A: 2 (1 Vote Possibly) - Ultima_Reality (Possibly) (Needs more elaboration), DarkDragonMedeus
Agree with 5-D RBR: 6 (2 votes Maybe) - Qawsedf234, Elizhaa, DarkDragonMedeus, Planck69, DontTalkDT (Maybe), Executor N0 (Maybe) (Needs more input)
Neutral on Low 1-C Ygg: 2 - Executor N0, Marvel_Champion_07
Disagree on Low 1-C altogether: 0
