If 'nothing' is the default state then it's perplexing how anything could come from it
But why should 'nothing' be the default state?

If the default state is everything/infinity then 'nothing' doesn't exist and it is an abstract concept, the question then becomes why do we tend to think 'nothing' is the default state and have we always done so?
It's finite vs infinite thinking
Early humans were infinite thinkers i believe

Once you accept 'everything' is the natural starting point the problem goes away and you can think about how what we see flowing out from it and what is the nature time and of space
