Can you say that spacetime is a real object? how?
I mean concrete objects (object with a physical referent or having the ability to affect objects with a physical referent) versus abstract objects (everything else).
Spacetime is a mathematical model. Not a concrete object.
And yet, evidence suggests that spacetime can generate concrete objects...
How do you wrap your head around this fact?
