I can tell you how that runs. String theory uses 10 or more dimensions.
As one can read in a textbook on Riemannian geometry like Eisenhart,
one can do all in the four real dimensions, what he/she likes, with
these 10 or more dimensions. Do you see the trick ? Thus one can
undisturbedly construct any nice structures that fit on e.g. particles.
Is that not nice ? ;-/ ;-\

Clearly no. Because it is not falsifiable.
