Yes, but "virtualizing time itself" as phrased is meant to be superfluous, LLMs do that kind of thing a lot. It makes it sound like some kind of mystical or novel approach even though the actual pattern is already common knowledge / explicitly supported.

    Yeah it does have that flowery turn of phrase.

    Lesson: if your going to do LLM assisted writing, say to it “make sure this has a distinct tone that consistent and clearly quite different”.
