It makes no sense to say that something is twice as far away as the big bang.
Yes it does... since in this context time = space (with a factor of c). The big bang was ~20 Billion years ago which makes it 20B*c far away [time] vs the farthest point in the universe which would be 20B*c*pi [space] (1/2 the circumference 2pi*r of the sphere described by r being the time since the BB [*c]).
