You put into words a discrepancy that has annoyed the back of my mind for some time now.
I had actually always learned that it went from single point to infinite instantly but grows more dispersed. But recently have been seeing a lot things in a similar vein, Kurzgesagt put out a video and even a special pin about the size of the universe at different points of time. It would seem if we know that to be the case and we know the growth rate we could then estimate the size of the universe now, but nobody suggests a finite universe with a certain size as the present universe, just the past.
That would additionally suggest that there is a ‘center’ of the universe which I again have always learned as N/A since it is infinite. Really confuses me.
