However, remember that chicken/egg (causality) is only a problem in OUR universe, with OUR physics. That doesn't mean that causality isn't even a THING in another universe.
i simply related an explanation given to me to help understand that nothing is not the right word to use. there's no proof that before the big bang there was nothing. the op stated that if there was nothingm then define nothing..., i supplied a reasonable answer to that.

i'm not claiming to be a physicist. i'm not stating this is my own explanation, i'm not misquoting einstein to prop up my sharing the example.

i simply shared an analogy on what nothing could very well be in this sense.
