It looks to me like time is fundamental, it's the direction that's emergent.<br>The thing that's really hard to convince physicists of is that non determinism is fundamental.<br>Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle is over 80 years old, has been tested extremely thoroughly, with no known violations - and it's still a principle instead of a law. AFAIK, the only physical law with better evidence than Heisenberg Uncertainty is energy conservation.
