Wouldn't the stars be concentrated more in certain areas of the sky?

There is nothing new about the universe being a cone. It's the universe
being a "horn" (a curved cone) what's a bit new, but nothing

revolutionairy
in my opinion.

Explain why you would think stars would be concentrated more in certain
directions.

So the Universe is just a big tuba or a 'horn of plenty' cornucopia?!?

I'm not going to explain how this works. It's not even that easy to
understand.... look for Stephen Hawkings models of the universe and you get
the idea.
