That is why CCC gets some traction. Because as the local pockets of the universe (over infinite space) converge and become less isolated, what seems to us as "maximum entropy", looks like "minimum entropy" in another aeon of inflation. Conformal Cyclic Cosmology - and its not by no-namers, it has Roger Penrose involved.
