> Without even getting into math and physics, you can intuitively understand how infinitely fast causality would prevent time, and therefore everything else we know, from being possible.
Can you unbox this a little? I think I may just have Friday brain, but I'm having some difficulty convincing myself in the moment that infinite-speed causality development would prevent time.
A system in which information is communicated instantly will quickly reach equilibrium, after which there is nothing left for any part to communicate to another. Eg diffusion of heat eventually results in a temperature distribution in which there is no longer a flow of heat.
