Think of a phase space of possible, adjacent universe slices, of which the observer can only see one, because the observer only exists within any single universe slice, not across them.

Mathematically, you can think of it as a complex number space (multidimensional numbers that can be expressed as sums a+bi). The inverted time dimension is still orthogonal to the space dimensions, but when you multiply its imaginary unit with itself, you don't get -1 but +1.

Damn. So regret not having learned enough "real" math (instead of useless math). This is where a pic slide comes in soo handy for the "math impaired". You guys ARE the normies now! A picture with corresponding computational/math *wording* helps the disabled!

Is the idea that a thing cannot keep it's "shape" because of dilation? Is that true sans observer of just information?
-
The distortion happens only with respect to an observer.

Ok. Looked up affine transformations and I think I got that part down. Don't immediately understand the truth of short distances in time are harder to travel and how one gets to that.

For space, traveling a distance d within a time interval t is harder when d is longer and t is shorter.
