I'm not so sure. I feel very uncertain about the question of how aggregate utilities at such a scale. By your logic, if the universe is infinite, wouldn't ANY sort of finite action not matter?

Let me spell that out. Either the universe is infinite, or not. Either morality is agreggative or not. If both of these are true, then finite actions don't make a difference.
