I don't understand it technically deep but I see some illustrative explanation with similar information on impossibility of finding Bitcoin private keys like finding an atom in a universe.
Those explanation are close to this thread's topic but those are about "private key collision".
Which explained the whole private key range's search space and the possibility of randomly generating the same private key.

On the other hand, the reply is about "pubKeyHash collision" (a.k.a address) which about (in summary):
The possibility of multiple different private keys that could generate the same pubKeyHash.
