@DavidZ Your response on (
physics.stackexchange.com/questions/253754/…) still doesn't explain why the question is off-topic. It seems perfectly reasonable for a student (e.g.) to wonder why, if the universe is often described as finite (even only for observability reasons), it's 'boundaries' can't be used as a reference frame. The CMB, in many ways, is such a boundary, and it
can be used as a reference frame. Valid question w/ valid answer.
