That's an arbitrary definition. We can't observe our local past events or even non-local events, yet we use them as theories/evidence depending on context (eg Red Shifted galaxies as evidence of expansion). Reasoning about past events would affect other future events is just as much evidence. That's how physics experiments are generally conducted.
Are you saying the observable universe is bounded to our Hubble volume?
Of course, but basic reasoning isn't evidence. Again... "evidence" implies something that can be observed, and something that can be observed, by definition, lies within the observable universe.
>Are you saying the observable universe is bounded to our Hubble volume?
I'm saying the observable universe is bounded to what we can observe, and evidence of something beyond the observable universe is a contradiction in terms.
I don't know how I can possibly make it simpler.
great sci fi plot, the earth is the center of the universe because anything out side of our sphere can’t be observed by our consciousness and ‘collapse’ into existence :)
By definition, there can't be. Evidence implies something we can observe, which would mean it isn't beyond the observable universe.
