While it is not possible to infer physics of the metalayer, it is possible to
infer the number of bits necessary to encode this universe.
Give the visible universe's timespace complexity (assuming, it's not just
an elaborate fake rendered for a few observers, which is synononymous to
postulating gods or a God), the metalayer needs to store an awful lot of
bits, and track them over an awful lot of iterations (or represent time
implicitly).
It is very, very big, judged by our standards of computational physics.
As such postulating matrioshka universes implies running very large
simulations is essentially free, this is not true in a darwinian context
(which applies for all places supporting imperfect replication and limited
amount of dimensions).
