Questions about timelines

This sounds stupid but I heard that a timeline is a fifth dimensional construct is it true? If yes wouldn't that mean destroying a timeline is a 5D feat?
 
What you’ve actually heard is a timeline containing a timeline being a 5D construct I presume. In that case it is a possibility but only with sufficient evidence.

A timeline can be made up of any amount of dimensions a fictional setting wants it to be, but it is usually assumed to be 4D, if there’s nothing suggesting it’s anything else

for fiction, a timeline can be even 0 or whatever, but it needs stataments (normally should be Low 2-C)

reguarding in a physic perception
assuming he meant space-time
"In physics, spacetime is any mathematical model which fuses the three dimensions of space and the one dimension of time" (aka 4th Dimensions in total)
"Large parts of these topics could not exist in their current forms without the use of such spaces. Einstein's concept of spacetime uses such a 4D space"
that's what a spacetime is, reguarding 5th dimension

"If interpreted physically, that is one more than the usual three spatial dimensions and the fourth dimension of time used in relativistic physics"
So basically 4th dimensions of space + 1 of time

basically no, space-time is 4D in physic

So a timeline is just a 4D structure then?

in physic mostly yes, for normal space-times.

in fiction, it can even be a 3D timeline (2th spatial dimension + 1 time dimension) or even stuff like 3th spatial dimensions + 2th temporal dimensions. basically in fiction it can be pretty much everything

whatever, considering our standards, Timeline, also called space-time continuum, without a specific context, qualify for Low 2-C (Universe Level+)

Are space-time contenum and timeline the same thing / meaning?
