    • Do not rely on any measurement for time. Remember that there are no adequate time measurements, even "day" or "hour", that can be used from one world to another, because they are different lengths.
    • Time bubbles exist and it is quite possible that an entire plane is within one, so math cannot align timelines across planes.
