Further observations/measurements COULD falsify this premise. For example, I'd be wrong if dark energy were a REAL form of energy, not entropy, not a VIRTUAL deficit owed to the vacuum. From the human perspective, mass in an IDEAL* black hole is exactly ZERO feet wide; yet, inside, it's infinitely wide. ( *: nature has only apparent black holes, not real ones ) Why so narrow ? because, there, space·time is infinitely warped. After entropy has polished it off, after its eXergy has been consumed, that sub·narrow bit of warped space is ELONGATED. Same for the Universe as a whole, it's expanding; length accrues because entropy accrues. Of course entropy is only thought to always increase within a closed system. If the universe is a closed system, fine. But if the universe interacts in anyway with other universes, as in the Ekpyrotic Theory, then all bets are off! If the currently observed acceleration of the universe comes not from dark energy within our universe, but from a clash of branes between universes, then energy is entering our universe and entropy could be decreasing!
