The Universe can be quantified and as such is an example of a paradox within the act of measurement.
Can you develop this point, as I am presently unable to attach any precise meaning to it. I am not aware that the universe can be quantified in any final or precise way. Even if it could, in what way would this be a paradox?
1. There is only the universe.
I AGREE. But this is just because of what the 'Universe' means, or refers to, EXACTLY.

2. This "only" states necessitates it as quantifiably 1
This is not the best written statement, but I AGREE. But this is only because there can ONLY EVER BE just One Universe, ONLY. Unless, OF COURSE, ANY one wants to CHANGE the definition of the 'Universe' to MEAN some OTHER 'thing'.

3. Dually this "only" state necessitates it as without comparison and comparison is necessary for form considering comparison is when one thing stands apart from another.
1. But there IS NO "other", and there NEVER could be "another".
2. YET, here we ARE, living IN an EVER-CHANGING in FORM Universe, which, OBVIOUSLY, STANDS OUT, BEFORE 'us'.
3. OF COURSE thee One and ONLY Universe is WITHOUT COMPARISON. It would be an IMPOSSIBILITY to have "ANOTHER" when One IS infinite AND eternal. There can NOT be ANOTHER 'thing' when there is One infinite AND eternal 'Thing' existing ALREADY.
4. WHY did you USE the 'dually' word here? Were you, consciously, semi-consciously, or unconsciously 'trying to' ADD a 'layer' of CONTRADICTION here, in the hope that this would HELP in backing up and supporting your ALREADY OBTAINED, WELL MAINTAINED, and STRONGLY HELD ONTO GAINED BELIEF here, somehow?
If no, then HOW do you KNOW that 'you' were NOT 'trying to' do this 'unconsciously'?

4. Because the universe has no comparison it is without form, thus it is 'nothing/no-thing' thus 0.
Talk about HOLDING ONTO A BELIEF and just EXPRESSING 'it' in the hope that "others" WILL AGREE WITH and ACCEPT 'it'.
Because the Universe, Itself, OBVIOUSLY has NO comparison, Itself, and NEVER could, this in NO WAY 'means' that the Universe is WITHOUT FORM, NOR is NOTHING, and to think or BELIEVE otherwise is just ABSURDITY, in the extreme.
But ABSURDITY is what BELIEFS can LEAD TO.

5. The universe is both 1 and 0 when quantified.
ONLY when one is 'trying to' support an ALREADY HELD False, Wrong, AND Incorrect BELIEF, which they are HOLDING ONTO, MAINTAINING, and will NOT let go of.
