You’re saying that time-flow is what’s throwing a wrench into translating an actual infinite from math to reality. I get what you mean, but I am no physicist so I’ll let Grand and Poly continue on. However I will say, as Grand has said, I don’t see how an actual infinity wouldn’t be logically possible if we assume B theory of time is correct. Directionality of time wouldn’t be an issue in that case, if my understanding of the theory is correct.
I don't have much time today to comment (maybe later tonight past midnight if possible), but just to be clear, poly and I are not in disagreement here regarding actual infinity and such. Don't let Steve mislead anyone here into thinking we do.
Also, just in case anyone misreads what you said, I'm not a physicist.
Neither is Steve (or, me).
Physicists do not have any "metaphysical qualms" about a beginningless Universe. They understand that what is true about space is also true of time.
