So frequency and mass are equivalent.

So that mass is what gives you the scale.

So it determines a frequency, you see.

If you don't have any mass, you don't have the notion of frequency, then you don't have scale.

So you have conformal geometry.

And the two places you don't have masses, I argue, is in the remote future.

Because the Dirac particles is all that's left and they scale away.

And the Big Bang

where you have energy so great that the mass becomes irrelevant.

So for quite different reasons.

But then the argument is that then a remote future, from a conform perspective

It's very like a stretched out big bang.

And the reason for this p perspective

Is that

The Big Bang is extraordinarily.

special in the sense that it the gravitational degrees of freedom

are not activated, and some for some reason.

And this isn't explained by inflation.

It's not explained by any conventional cosmology.

However, it is explained if you say that the Big Bang is a conformal continuation of the remote future.
