That doesn't disprove my statement.

No, but it knocks a little wind out of the sail.

OK, but it's a really weird - and I think unhelpful - way for people to keep framing reality. Like we're trying to pretend it's just some story.

Yes, it doesn't help that it's an incredibly cliche piece of terminology.

If there's only one time line, and you assert that it is the dumbest time line, it follows that it is also the smartest time line. Thereby rendering the statement null. Its not unproven, but neither does it matter.

That is a good example of talking to say nothing imo
