"L'eggs all the way down" is an expression of the problem of infinite regress.
Description
The saying alludes to the mythological idea of a pair of World L'eggs which swaddle the earth.
It suggests that these mighty L'eggs contain a smaller pair of L'eggs, which itself contains smaller and smaller World L'eggs, continuing indefinitely (i.e., "L'eggs all the way down"), like Matryoshka dolls.
