You know, our universe page says “If they are outright called universes or stated to be the size of universes by a reliable source, they should be considered universes.” All I was saying was, something referred to as a different space can have their own time. But since statements, like the one in the quote, is enough. Guess this makes my premise pretty redundant.The core premise of your argument seems to hinge on the idea that a temporal dimension is just a measure of spatial movement, and thus that spatially disjoint areas should have their own time-axes, but that's not necessarily true, as I'll further explain in the response below.
I mean, that single slice can be any duration right? And any duration of time have have uncountably infinite intervals. So a “slice” of spacetime wouldn't be so finite.Due to how higher-dimensional spaces work, the universe of three dimensions we are familiar with is just a single slice out of the infinitely-many that comprise the spacetime continuum, and so arbitrarily removing some from the overall structure would hardly have any effect, much like how removing a single point out of the 1-dimensional real number line would result in... the same number line, but one where the choosen point was removed.
