To much for a reply here but, I would say that 'in reverse' to say it simply.
(And I did on my first response).
No Time - No Gravity
Time can exist without gravity but gravity can not exist without time.
I would say 'the better unanswered question' would be, can mass exist without time because of the relationship of mass and gravity and gravity is a result of mass over time.
Without time there would be no 'ACTION' or 'REACTION' and everything would be equal.
But, could there be mass. You can't have gravity without mass. Seems to make sense but does it ?
My thinking suggests that everything would instantly breakdown into some fundamental but equal part without time. But a part is still mass. But is there a size of mass that will not produce gravity ?
Past my pay grade. But I have pondered it for 40 years. Seems you have too.
Perhaps my thoughts will lead you to a answer.
To me, mass and time are the fundamentals of the universe. They have no direct relationship with each other but everything happens as a result of the 2.
Everything we calculate is some relationship of action/reaction of the 2 in cause and effect including light and gravity.
Could it be that 'Time' is 'mass's' polar opposite ? But that just sounds stupid doesn't it.
Does time have dimension or is it the 4th dimension. We still have not measured it.
We superimpose T=x for our own calculations as a point of reference .
The ancients used celestial events. Our current clocking is still based on it but only for reference and understanding by comparison. Same as these complex modern calculations requiring time in the equation.
Time = a concept without dimension. It has to exist if 'anything else' is to exist.
To use it, you must apply some dimension to it for comparison.
