Sorry, but I'm afraid I don't follow that. Objects in our universe
are strongly affected by gravity, and that's unstable. (Density
fluctuations grow with time, not damp out.) How does having a
"larger universe" change that?

Again no hurry to answer, but this is the sort of question you'll
eventually need to face.
