So maybe this is a dumb thought to even have, (And maybe I'm misunderstanding some things.) but I was reading through the tier system again and something stuck out at me. Quote from the complex multiversal description, "Characters who can universally affect, create and/or destroy spaces whose size corresponds to three to five higher levels of infinity greater than a standard universal model. In terms of "dimensional" scale, this can be equated to 7 and 9-dimensional real coordinate spaces (R ^ 7 to R ^ 9)"
So the description of all the higher tiers talks about both levels of infinity and "dimensional" scale. Something I've noticed is that most verses that reach tier 1 do so by scaling to statements of higher dimensional space or being beyond the concept of space in some way. For example the chaos gods from Warhammer 40k or the Daedric Princes from Elder Scrolls.
Both of those list their reasons for high 1-B as being beyond infinite dimensional space. So when I think of levels of infinity I think of this scan from DC Comics where this dude is explaining how the multiverse is nested inside an omniverse. So if you ignore dimensional tiering scaling to the DC omniverse would be low 1-C assuming the universes and multiverses that make it up are all infinite in size.
I guess what I'm getting at, and maybe this is my ignorance, but it feels like most high tier verses are only high tier because they scale to a statement about dimensions instead of from actual feats like a dude blowing up some kind of crazy multiversal superstructure composed of an infinite amount of infinite layers of multiverses. If a verse did have a feat like that it'd be, as far as I understand, high 1-B when tons of other verses get there or even higher based on a statement of being beyond dimensions. And well, I think that's kind of lame and I think it'd be interesting to know for sure how disregarding, (Or at least requiring a way higher burden of proof.) dimensional tiering would shake up the tier system. Like which verses would end up on top, what the biggest downgrades would be, etc.
And to be clear I'm not saying the tier system should be changed or anything like that. This is just a stupid thought I had and I'm curious what other people think about how the site would look if dimensional tiering got Thanos snapped for a day.
