I thingk you're right. If you like, have a look at my thread on the Inverted Universe, in which I assume that the present universe will end in the mother of all black holes before being unpacked again.

See video explaining topic Several related concepts are embedded in this topic: It is assumed that inflation theory in one form or another is correct (even though it's still a subject of debate). During inflation, all matter and radiation are pushed to the outer edge of the cosmos, forming a skin, somewhat like a soap bubble (purely speculative, can somebody make it look plausible?) As soon as inflation stops, the skin slackens, and matter and radiation expand within a shell around the void in the middle. (speculative). The universe still drifts outwards, but also starts falling back into the void (speculative). The falling back into the void could account for dark energy (speculative). The falling back could also account for the fact that not all galaxies and galaxy clusters seem move away from each other. In fact, entire clusters of intersecting galaxies have been observed. It can be argued that our observable universe is small in relation to the total size of the shell in which is embedded. This could account for the fact that we only see expansion at our scale, not the contraction at the total scale. After an unknown period of time, the contraction becomes dominant and will suck back the entire shell into a big crunch. (the big crunch is still a subject of debate). The final crunch (the mother of all black holes) collapses everything into nothing. All information is lost, and the entropy of the universe will be the same as when it started. (speculative). That symmetry will be broken instantly by a new unpacking of the next universe with the same entropy, and a new inflation (speculative). I have no math and physics skills to back up my ideas (proven).

Dear Moderator, thanks for your correction. Can you suggest where I should take my ideas for discussion?

the link to my video is not exactly a reply, but a different way to look at expansion. Hope it contributes something..
