I think the implication holds for the very reason you give, Greg. That any massive particle travelling at subluminal velocities can't exceed "c," so light will always be measured at the same acceleration rate. To light itself, there would be no time, but only pertains to the observable universe.

Space is a part of the universe, though, and therefore would represent the true universal time. For space itself, there would be absolutely no concept of time insertable.

What do you propose is the speed of spatial expansion, btw?
