because the demiurge thought it would be cool
The question will probably never figure out.
I'm more about wondering about after everything now. When everything stops expanding and all the energy is gone, does everything collapse and cause another big bang? Has this happened before?
Is this "multiverse" many of us wonder about really just this same universe in different incarnations? Can any of these incarnations really be said to be "before" or "after" each other?
This is the stuff I ponder about recently.
If the universe/big bang didn’t exist, would numbers conceptually still exist? i.e zero is still zero regardless of whether any matter exists, right?
If there is no form of existence in which math doesn’t exist, then everything ultimately exists necessarily. It has to exist, as a result of being derived from the infinity of math.
Everything is just math, and it therefore has no option but to exist.

There is no dark without light. No silence without sound. No nothing without something.
Take the "no"s out of that and it's still true.
No it's literally impossible.
You didnt even try, did you?
I did and then of course explained that the result is more than false, it's literally impossible.

We wiki never know. My take, which is not a thing one can prove or disprove, is that something that don't actually exist needed something to exist in order to love. My answer is love.
Stuff exists so it can ask questions like "why is there stuff?"
