Wait I re-read the argument. Basically, it's due to time being unconnected. In fact, I think Ibn Arabi argued on this basis, God is constantly creating and recreating the universe.
However, I think plank time maybe wrong, and set theory maybe be wrong about 1-2 having as much real numbers in between as 1-infinity.
In fact, this is a problem, even if God re-creates moments. What connects moments? If there is no time between one moment of creation to the other, then it has the same problem.
I think plank time is a bad theory.
Can your argument be summarized like this:
Time being connected is magical and needs outside magical cause.
Time cannot be unconnected or we would have no knowledge.
We do have knowledge.
Therefore time is connected.
Therefore there is a magical causer.
