Dwarf scholars can use bins to create other universes.

Inside these universes, other scientises could use bins to create universes.

Finally, the universe where we play is contained inside a bin.

Have you not seen stacked bins before?

I have, they’d be making a tower the more there are, and it assumes the bottom is smaller than the top. I for some reason was basically thinking of a cube with one face removed

This is a fair point.  I think all dwarven constructions are cube-based, at least by default.

Dwarves are allergic to circles, so all dwarven construction uses squares this includes wheels and gears.

As long as we're on the subject of cubes: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/07/200720112214.htm

As long as the flat earthers don't see that article: "how can something that's on average cubic be a sphere?"

On rare occasions, a scientist can create a universe in a bin, and in that universe, a scientist could create the first universe in a bin.

Circles aren’t the only round shape

In future DF the dwarves develop conspiracy theories, including the Round Worlders.

In future DF the dwarves develop conspiracy theories, including the Round Worlders.

There are many different possible world shapes, but people in those worlds can potentially believe it is any possible shape.

[King Zultan]

Some dwarves will believe all nobles are lizard men in disguise.

They'll also refuse to be hospitalized under the belief that any sort of medical care will give their children autism.

[BigUglyWorm]

Conspiracy theories--either pre-made or procedurally-generated--become another type of belief sapient creatures can both hold and argue for; those who have strong convictions and persuasive voices can thus spread them to others.  These beliefs are, however, more dangerous than most, ranging from an intense hatred of soap and mistrust of authority figures to being convinced that goblins are freedom-loving liberators and that magma baths are just the thing for clearing clogged pores and detoxifying the ol' humours.

They'll also refuse to be hospitalized under the belief that any sort of medical care will give their children autism.

They'll also geld themselves to avoid it, too.

Best geld the entire fort just to be safe.

Why stop at the fort?

If they had a flat world with east/west and north/south wrap-around then a pro-Torus faction could arise.
