My post is almost entirely about the enormous hidden assumptions in the word “finding” within your description “finding suitable trading partner in multiverse”. The search space isn’t just so large that you need galaxies full of computronium, because that’s not even remotely close to enough. It’s almost certainly not even within an order of magnitude of the number of orders of magnitude that it takes. It’s not enough to just find one, because you need to average expected value over all of them to get any value at all.
The expected gains from every such trade are correspondingly small, even if you find some.
