Actually you can create something from nothing. This is called 'pair
production'.
If you create two worlds and populate each one with one of the twins,
each world would look like ours.
Now you certainly say: that is not possible.
But actually it is. If you have two anti-symmetric rotations, which add
together to nothing, than one could move - say - down and the other up.
In spacetime view you only need two directions of time: one forward and
one backwards (which is 'down' in the view of relativity).
Both these world have internally positive directions of time, only in
respect to the other they are both negative.
So the worst mistake in physics is not the denial of 'aether', but the
assumption of a universal ('external') time.
If you would give that up, you could find much better models.
TH
btw: my own model you find here
