Put another way, why couldn’t the universe expand in one direction preferentially compared to another?

    Wow. So it’s like that adage. However big you think space is, it’s much bigger than that.

    It’s hard to fathom scales at which being gravitationally bound is insignificant relative to those type of effects.
