Ah, but what you are forgetting is that if you look at 90 degrees to the *right* of the covariant space-time metric, the Riemann tensors that describe PhysicsGenius' metric can be seen to trivially allow light from MANY times the event horizon distance to reach your observable cone.
It is a matter of simple algebra and some unique insight to get a recursive solution for Hubble length closed universes.
To make this work, all you have to do is turn 90 degrees and the universe will look the same. Imagine a sphere centered at the observer and with a radius of "PhysicsGenius" All the light beams turn 90 degrees at the surface of the sphere all in the same direction and they appear as combed hairs tangent to the sphere everywhere on the spheres surface.
