This paper delves into the intricate world of cosmic fluctuations within the framework of practical cosmology. Focusing on scanning inflation, we explore the impact of extra dimensions on the universe's fluctuations and the gravitational instability of anisotropic geometries. Analyzing diverse inflationary trajectories, we assess observational constraints and the generic properties of fluctuations in models with compactification. By employing tools like Markov Chain Monte Carlo, we uncover potential observables related to varying couplings and primordial fluctuations, paving the way for deeper insights into the landscape of cosmological theories.
