D&D General Does Earth (or at least a fantasy version of it) have a crystal sphere and exist in the D&D Cosmology?

Perhaps it's simply tiny Word Archons, too small to be seen with the naked eye, who just translate everything off-worlders say and hear, rather than a true lingua omnia (if I'm using the Latin correctly).

That doesn't make any sense unless they live in people's ears and excrete a telepathic matrix formed by combining the conscious thought frequencies with nerve signals picked up from the speech centers of the brain which has supplied them.

Which of course would allow us to logically prove that the Gods do not exist!

Did any real-world pantheons - Egyptian pantheon, Greek pantheon, Norse pantheon, etc. - feature in 5E’s Planescape: Adventures in the Multiverse?

Couldn't we just have a really big crystal sphere, with a diameter larger than the observable universe?

Or a "standard sized" one and all our observations are just because that's what the magic is letting us see.

It's worth noting that not all places in the D&D multiverse follow the same rules. You can (though it's not easy) find a Gate to Athas. This does not mean Athas has a Crystal Sphere (and I believe it was definitively stated Athas-space does not).

AFAIK it does, it just has become impenetrable. Except when for some reasons it suddenly is not. IIRC there are some survivors of a crashed spelljammer on Athas that mutated and went native.
