Uli comments on Scientists trap and tame a single particle of antimatter for months

I think the universe actually is perfectly balanced between antimatter and matter, but variation across space emerged as space expanded and our entire observable universe happens to be in a pocket where there was more matter than antimatter.

Sounds reasonable. Assuming matter and antimatter split into equal parts that would have to be the case. I'm not sure if annihilation is a perfect process. Assuming energy density creates separation of energy into matter and antimatter of equal parts and no sudden annihilation happens, that would most certainly result in such a conclusion.
