consequence of omphalogical reasoning
A more sophisticated consequence of omphalogical reasoning would be that stars whose distance from us is more than a few thousand light years must have been created with ready-made light beams stretching almost all the way to us - otherwise we wouldn't be able to see them until the distant future!
Notes:
Is that the stars were made with light beams stretch lightyears toward us.
