While contested by today's scholars, there was a time where the Ozumi Impossibility Principle was regarded as incontrovertible truth. Ozumi phrased his conclusions thusly:
"The universe is composed of eleven layers of truth. When truths contradict the truth highest on the stack supersedes. Capital Truths, those which reside on the top-most layer, are correct across all timelines. The only Capital Truth is that which is stated theretoforth."
This molded the behaviours of Linejumpers during the early centuries of interdimensional travel. Not content exploring laterally on the 6th or 7th layers, it was common for Linejumpers to journey longitudinally in both the upwards and downwards directions. It has, of course, since been forbidden to linejump higher than the 5th layer. Under the law of the 14,550c Delta Dimension Misuse Act, violators face partial or total erasure from all applicable timelines.
This has not prevented those who still heed Ozumi's Truths to journey to the higher layers. As fact becomes less fickle, these travellers undergo the process of abstraction. On the 4th layer, Old-Science principles that are categorized under the umbrella of general relativity no longer apply. A "timeline" is not an accurate way to describe these places, as the linearity of time is thrown into question. An ill-prepared Linejumper may find themselves entering the dimension at every point in history all at once. In such a case, the Linejumper will suffocate in themselves and die. It is estimated that 99.95% of all matter in 4th-layer dimensions are, in fact, trillions of copies of unwise-Linejumper corpses. The solution to successful inception is simple, one must bring a passage of time with them to deploy as they enter.
The breakdown of general relativity is generally relatively easy to overcome. When Linejumpers enter a 3rd-layer dimension, they are faced with a far greater threat. The truths of Old-Science thermodynamics no longer apply. This makes it impossible for energy to exist on this layer, and therefore Linejumping cannot be performed. Those who ascend to this layer rarely return, but dimensions here, by most accounts, are rather pleasant. The lack of time matters less as without thermodynamics infinite copies of yourself can exist nested with no adverse effects. Matter is gaseous but workable, and light, unimpeded by dark energy, is plentiful. It is theorized by some that Linejumpers who arrive here are not so much stranded, but choose never to descend as layers below the 3rd are wholly less pleasant. The conditions here also make it ideal for practising botany.
As linejumping itself is impossible on the 3rd layer due to the lack of prerequisite truths, it is mere speculation as to what truths persist on the 2nd layer. It's likely that at this point the concept of dimensional space is abstracted away completely, and thus with it the remaining Old-Science concepts of quantum mechanics and new-science concepts of Fandangled Doromincagenics. Doctor Ozumi explains to his students that the 2nd layer is more of an emotion than a place. He suggests that it's like the feeling of enjoying your favourite meal. It is a matter of historical certainty that Doctor Ozumi's favourite meal was twang beans and duck liver, so therefore this theory has been disregarded by the modern scientific community.
Finally, if Ozumi's Impossibility Principle is to be regarded as true, it is the only truth that persists on the top-most layer. As argued by Professor Charmiverous Black, that is why Ozumi's Impossibility Principle must be untrue:
"If the only truth that remains on the top-most layer is the truth of lack of all other truths, then that sounds really boring. This layer's exhausting tediousness is, therefore, also an undeniable truth. Thus we can conclude there is more than one truth which is true at the highest level. So yeah, SUCK IT Ozumi."
To conclude, it seems at this point, nothing will stop Linejumpers from venturing to the higher layers, but none will ever reach the top-most, and this is for the best. Those who wish to descend to lower layers are welcome to, but they are warned that after the 8th layers things get really uncomfortable. Traveller discretion is advised.
