Theory with attempts to back-up by evidence as it comes.
Sometimes (if not often) Theory gets ahead of Experimentation & Validation.

I empathize with on this subject. Though I do love the elegance of M-Theory, aside
from struggling to understand it. I find it hard to consider it credible when no current
corroboration is available (if even attainable).

The notion "time reversal" [is] not an entity as you say. This "reversal" of time is a

what is going on. It is the
Model which is run backwards Only.

Wheeler has theorized of a "Multiverse" where what is "outside" or observable universe
is "whole" other "bubble" universes in a higher (> 3 or 4) dimension vector space.
