I agree. One problem is that, as Sabin Hossenfelder has been saying for several years, that physics has become more about mathematical theorizing than in observations. Her book Lost in Math: How Beauty Leads Physics Astray (https://amzn.to/3KFVFzW) explains it well.

A second problem that you mention is that Western science does not have a full conception of time. I like your descriptions of time, and I also like Bergson's theory of time as being a continuous flow of activity.
