Well said. I would add that he must have had faith in this being the case in order to jump...and then succeed in assembling the other worlds.
Because he had done the work, no "faith" was required - which is the point. He had expanded his reality to include assembling other worlds, so it was no different than stepping off a curb... just a bit more scary. Heh.
