That’s why it would fuck over causality. If I destroyed 1 that could be the natural end of the electrons “life” of bouncing back and forth through time. I would need to destroy a 2nd which would then have to be the same electron from earlier in it’s timeline.
To destroy every other quantum state of the single electron, wouldn’t you need to destroy it at its beginning state? The end state would be at/just after the heat death of the universe, so it wouldn’t really make any difference then.
The end state doesn’t have to be at the end of time if the electron can travel backwards in time. It can go to the end, head back towards the beginning, and get destroyed somewhere in between.
Strictly speaking it would have to get destroyed at some point, or at least have something stop it from going back and forth, otherwise the universe would be all electron.
You would need a position to do that and all you might have done is reflect it backwards in time.
If you could “remove” it by placing it into another dimension, it might disprove the theory, but the causal domain might be larger then previous assumed.
This is one of those Math Theories that isn’t technically a Science Theory. We can make a mathematical model, but it’s untestable.
So if I can destroy 1 electron I destroy every electron?
I mean…if energy can not be created nor destroyed, it kind of lends to this hypothesis… 🤔
E=mc2 is the equation for how much energy is created by destroying a given amount of mass.
Do it.
Only in its future. Probably you’d have to find the electron precisely at the end of its timeline.
If you destroy it, that will be the end of its timeline
So I have to destroy 2 electrons to fuck over causality.
How could you destroy 2, if there’s only one?

Thanos should have picked a better strategy
