Tbf i feel like this is a false equivalence, since a bunker on our planet and the planet itself share the same "space", the same " Dimension "Is an underground bunker on a different timeline than the rest of the planet?

Then ig we treat every universe as just a low 2-C structure, aka a space time, then why destroying said structure [unless it's done by hax or something, generally like a big explosion or shockwaves or your average "I'll destroy the entire universe because my gf blocked me"] is a 3-A feat, the general assumption should be low 2-C since you are inherently destroying the entire structure and not just the matter within it [for example , if we take "I will destroy the entire universe " should be low 2-C since the universe, the structure itself which is low 2-C would be described, now 2-C feat. But if we have statements like "I will destroy the entire matter in the universe " or "I will wreak havoc and destroy everything in the universe " would just wield 3-A or high 3-A depending on the size since you are technically just destroying what's in the universe and not the entire universe]Well all universes are inherently low 2-C by necessity. A verse can't treat a universe as only 3-A unless everyone involved has infinite/immeasurable speed or something crazy like that.
I think the confusion here is that you're looking at the nature of the universe (Which isn't case by case, it will always be low 2-C) and not the nature of the destruction of the universe (Which varies from 3-A, High 3-A, and low 2-C).
An underground bunker is matter in a different area of space. That analogy ain’t too solid.Just because space is cut off doesn't mean time is too. Is an underground bunker on a different timeline than the rest of the planet?
I agree with what you have just said.If I'm correct, the idea that creating a universe is Low 2-C comes from such feats usually involving a creator deity emerging from a primordial void and then creating the entire cosmos from nothing, with said event often being marked as the beginning of time. We also treat different universes as being spatio-temporally independent from other universes as a default assumption, especially since fiction will often make reference to "alternate timelines" or "parallel universes" when dealing with the concept of a multiverse. Finally, as acknowledged by staff here, universes include space and time by definition, and only in extremely niche verses will time be explicitly separated from space.
Given all of that, I can understand that there is a basis to this proprosition. I just don't really swing in either direction regarding this matter - if only because I don't know that it's necessarily accurate to fiction. That said, if the proposal is approved, we should still carefully analyze the context behind such feats: if there's obvious evidence that only the matter of the universe is being affected (e.g., MCU Thanos stating that he will shred the universe on the atomic level), then that disqualifies Low 2-C. If characters can go back in time to prevent the destruction of the universe, then that is also hard evidence against Low 2-C.
I'm also undecided on how to treat pocket dimensions and realms that are stated to be spatially divided from the main universe. I guess I'll get back to you on that, if I ever come up with a response, that is.

We’ll treat them like we always have. Though I do understand your concern. Ultima had an interesting take on this subject from what I heard.I'm also undecided on how to treat pocket dimensions and realms that are stated to be spatially divided from the main universe.

This is correct, yes.If said explosion destroys other universes it's obviously 2-C. If it's only affecting them then it's unquantifiable.
Just because space is cut off doesn't mean time is too. Is an underground bunker on a different timeline than the rest of the planet?
Probably the stupidest thing I've ever read which just so happens to be a logical fallacyIf said explosion destroys other universes it's obviously 2-C. If it's only affecting them then it's unquantifiable.

Chill out dude I already addressed his point.Probably the stupidest thing I've ever read which just so happens to be a logical fallacy
I mean you can replace bunker with pocket reality or dimensionally sealed area if you'd like.An underground bunker is matter in a different area of space. That analogy ain’t too solid.
Didn't you once argue for infinite speed DBS?Probably the stupidest thing I've ever read which just so happens to be a logical fallacy
Current VSBW standards don't count that as low 2-C because that realm needs to be a separate space time, at least that's as far as I know.@Antvasima @SomebodyData @DarkDragonMedeus
As it stands with our current rules I want to ask a question.
Say for example there is a Low2C universe with two 3A realms in it. Named X and Y respectively.
If I destroy X realm only, but accross past, present and future, without affecting Y realm in way. Will that give me low2C rating??
I am talking about feat, not realm.Current VSBW standards don't count that as low 2-C because that realm needs to be a separate space time, at least that's as far as I know.

Can you answer me pls.Snip
But isn't destroying Aleph 1 amount of 3A snapshots Low2C.......which is basically what happens with destruction accross past, present and future?? Uncountable Infinite and all that jazz.....That's either a very specific hax or that Low 2-C universe is actually 2-C.
Yes the feat would also not be low 2-C becuase the structure destroyed is not low 2-C and that is because it's not a separate space time since it's contained within a bigger space time. I think.I am talking about feat, not realm.
Can you answer me pls.
Actually no, destroy something of universal scale across past, present and future theoretically still infinitely superior than just 1 universal scale thing as you still destroy uncountable infinite number of universal scale thing. Universal scale Space-time continuum is just default thing for Low 2-C.Yes the feat would also not be low 2-C becuase the structure destroyed is not low 2-C and that is because it's not a separate space time since it's contained within a bigger space time. I think.
okay maybe that's true. Since you're still destroying the minimum space required for low 2-C.Actually no, destroy something of universal scale across past, present and future theoretically still infinitely superior than just 1 universal scale thing as you still destroy uncountable infinite number of universal scale thing. Universal scale Space-time continuum is just default thing for Low 2-C.
I honestly want to know how......how is this 2C??Again, it just sounds like this universe is actually 2-C.
This is my impression as well.Again, it just sounds like this universe is actually 2-C.
If a certain realm contains several Low 2-C universes it seems to be 2-C, but we are derailing from the original purpose of this thread.I honestly want to know how......how is this 2C??
This is important though...If a certain realm contains several Low 2-C universes it seems to be 2-C, but we are derailing from the original purpose of this thread.
This depends. If the realms are bodies of matter then it's low 2-C. If they are entirely separate spaces within a bigger space then it's 2-C, since the different space would account for time as well.@Antvasima @SomebodyData @DarkDragonMedeus

Separate spaces...This depends. If the realms are bodies of matter then it's low 2-C. If they are entirely separate spaces within a bigger space then it's 2-C, since the different space would account for time as well.
From the looks of it, yes.Separate spaces...
Exactly your premise.....which Somebody and Ant kinda sorta agrees with it seems.....
Since we treat all universes as low 2-C, I think treating their destruction as low 2-C until proven otherwise, since 3-A technically isn’t universal but multi galaxy on steroids.Can you remind us what exactly that you want to change?
This is where the “proven otherwise” thing comes into play.Okay. Thanks for the summary.
We have to use the available evidence regarding whether only the physical matter of the universe was destroyed or the entire spacetime continuum though. We cannot automatically assume a massively higher rating than what we have evidence for.
