definitely agree it's mathematical. everything is mathematical, and ratios are the essence of relativity itself. but this is where people can start talking around each-other anyway, it's all based on perception (which too is relative).
but word, time is definitely a measurement tool which existence uses to give meaning (and significance) to the relative 'space' between life milestones, just as distance gives meaning to the space between matter.
based on my vantage point, mathematical functions and human constructs are not at ends though. without the perceived space between life and death, would time exist? guess its up to the individual to discern for themselves.
