Yes it is, as to me the only reasonable explanation I could come with its to think that something exists that is different from everything else because this thing can, somehow, be non-sensical, to reconcile non-sensical things phenomena like something having no cause or having a "cause" concept without time aplying to it.

2: I can't reallly tell if you are right about the way i'm thinking, i'm not sure.

But i'm not commited to a way of thinking about it, I'm just favoring the ideas that seem to be more reasonable to me, and yeah I think (not completely linearly as I know that we don't have time before time, but I think the we might have things happening prior to the start of time, on that (as you said) preexinting temporal plane.

What if time is not at all linear? What if time is a dimension of infinite space? Then infinite regression is no longer a problem.

Infinite space filled with vibrating mass = eternal time. There is frequency of vibration but no convective movement or orbit of anything, no "temporal time". There are no things in that state, there is only the One Thing and there is no nothing any where to be found.
