That’s cool. Could it be possible that the expansion that immediately follows the singularity is not necessarily pointing to a very distant past space time, but rather to a recurrent cyclical process that is currently happening for everything around us?
Essentially, is there time-aliasing* in our measurements? And if so, does that point to cyclical processes and thus uncertainty about any potential absolute age of the universe? ie. If the universe behaves in a cycle, we might not be able to tell what number of cycle we are in, but maybe only our current stage/progress along the overall cycle
* the “double slit in time” experiment seems to show that https://youtu.be/b9O6iCM4vCg?feature=shared
