They’re just part of Planescape, which is the multiverse of the Great Wheel.You can just use the planes and configure them however you want, or use a completely different cosmology like Eberron does.I also don’t like Planescape, but it’s trivially easy to take bits of things from it and make them part of whatever cosmology I want.Planescape has been the default setting for a decade. The core books will talk more about the multiverse, they said nothing to suggest that Sigil will be presented prominently in the PHB.The usage of universe you’re insisting on is only “correct” in the context of defining a multiverse as multiple universes and forcing that meaning. The actual meaning of the word is “everything. Full stop.”Omniverse only exists as a term to help comic book readers not be confused when the actual universe (ie, all that exists) is being discussed.A multiverse is a type of universe, and an omniverse is another word for universe that contextually makes clear that the universe being discussed is one containing multiversal divisions.Better terminology would have been to call each part of a multiverse something else, like plane or even reality.</blockquote>
