      It's a great way to test various limits. When you think about this even more, it's a little mind-bending, as we're trying to impose a global clock ("who is the most up to date") on a system that inherently doesn't have a global clock. When we scale time down to nanoseconds, this affects us in the real world of today: a light-nanosecond is not very far.
      interesting idea interesting way of thinking about it testing taking things to extremes considering the extreme case: long times challenging one's assumptions making too many assumptions may be stale
