If the whole grinds to a halt, everyone and everything will also grind
to a halt hence no one will notice ;-)
The whole thing is based on motion of somekind. If motion stops, it
can only happen right at the very end of 'Big Shrink' and then ...
haven't a clue, probably back to whatever Laws prevailed before 'Big
Bang' and we have no mechanisms to know them with our existing Laws.
In other words, it makes little or no difference. That was my motto
some 20 odd years ago. It is still valid.
Tiny ants scampering up Himalya carrying AK47s. God looks down and
asks: "what do they want?". The answer comes back: "they are after
you". Looks again, smiles and goes phewt with finger. Ants gone.
Forever.
Like the Chief said in the 'Untouchables': "bringing a knife to a gun
battle?!" (or words to that effect).
Our 'human' tools, weapons, laws, information, data, knowledge,
wisdom, art, culture, political systems, values, fears and dreams
have no place in that overwhelmingly non-linear existence.
We cannot begin to hope to understand.
