It's obvious what time is, though. That makes the idea of backwards time travel incoherent. I don't think it's something we need to pretend might be coherent out of some sort of feigned modesty or whatever. It is not obvious. Einstein showed that time and space are interrelated, and that by altering one's frame of reference there is cross talk between space and time measurements. You are making the unfounded assumption that time is static, just as Newton did. There's no shame in that (for Newton), the view was consistent with all of the experimental data available to him at the time. Einstein wasn't being modest, nor feigning it, when he overthrew the classical assumptions of space and time. Penny for your thoughts on the grandfather paradox.
