if the universe had an expansive beginning such as the 'big bang' it couldn't be actually 'infinite' and it would therefore have a boundary of some type [and dimension of size]. IF the big bang theory is correct then it should be possible to approximate the location of the singularity that all this came from [as soon as it started expanding it would have created 'time and space', as you say, which would have had to have an origination; this would always be in the center of it all (without regard to what the actual definition of 'center' is because in this case it means the 'singularity' that supposedly 'spawned' the universe) and i see no reason why this location of the origin of physically dimensional space wouldn't have a location (IOW- to me where all this matter came from is definitely NOT a 'moot point' (though this is probably seen as a fairly pointless concern the reason i insist it's not is because in dismissing these types of things as 'pointless', 'indeterminate', 'moot' or whatever, one would just be sidestepping the fact that matter and the universe do in reality exist in dimensions of time and space, ALL of which is measurable (wasn't it Einstein's that said time is what you measure with a watch, space is what you measure with a ruler, or something like that?)].
