The OBSERVABLE universe is about 93 billion light years in diamenter. The UNOBSERVABLE is 23 trillion light years! How do they KNOW?

If you Google the question you will see extensive charts and graphs showing you how they have calculated and estimated and extrapolated. Now 93 billion light years in diameter is a pretty big size. 23 trillion light years in diameter is way bigger. What's the point of asking the question? What are we supposed to do with the answers? What does it matter? How does it affect us in any way? Curiosity of course is always the point of asking! Why else would you ask any question unless you were curious enough about something to seek answers? Incurious has never been my cuppa tea.  Are you incurious and happy not knowing or asking? Just accepting what you are told to believe? Why would anyone be satisfied with ignorance? That DOES NOT compute.
