See my response to thx-2718 downthread, about having to add energy from outside the system.

I have read all of your comments and not one of them actually says anything concrete. It's the exact same vague objection repeated over and over again.

Please explain exactly why you think calculating the total gravitational potential energy of the entire universe or a well-defined sub-volume of it is intractable. Feel free to use arbitrarily technical mathematical or physics language, just please stop being vague.

I responded to this in the other subthread where we are having this discussion.
