The Zeno bit with the arrow is solved because quantum, i.e., spacetime is quantized, discrete. Also with Planck length is Planck time, so I'm failing to see how the one cannot be extrapolated to the other. Further, it seems likely that this universe is 13.82 billion years old, making the whole excercize rather moot. To include infinite speculations to rationalize a point that should be clear with fractal geometry and evolution seems to be unnecessary construction. If your intended audience refuses to hear the ABCs and 123s why do you think it's going to listen to the Alephs?

Color me confused.  Huh

I would think the Zeno paradox has been unparadoxed way before quantum mechanics.   I would think the thinking world had been analytically unstymied in closed form not long after the invention of calculus. Only lineal antecedents of those who could still believe in biblical creation in the 21st century would have still been quacking about it in the 19th century.
