But what if the time frame is included in the claiming of X?
Example; this paper clip was at this point in space at this point in time (those two also being just simplified versions of purely arbitrary but absolute value) and the fact that it existed at that point will be eternally valid, and thus the fact, the concept, not the paper clips existence but the fact that it did exist there is equal to itself. Eternity does not change.
Time cannot be frozen and compared to itself; anywhere in reality. You're right back to where you were before - a 'gedanken' - it's a thought experiment; a fantasy of mind... it can be symbolic; but not real. There is no infinitely small time-frame either, a zero-point length moment in time.
Time does not exist... it is not a physical thing.
There is NO instant in time.
There is NO time particle.
It is a SUBJECTIVE creation of mind.
Relativity has lead (some) people to think, in error, that Time exists. BUT there IS NOT an instant in time; there is no subdivision of time you are moving through. The moment is ETERNAL, because time does not exist. Eternity is FLUX; change in the moment.
This is an accurate demonstration of why it is FALSE:

FALSE... it is an abstraction; and they are only TRUE in mind; or on paper; BUT are never TRUE in reality. The only truth in existence is that all (so-called) truths are incomplete ( including this one :) ); and that they are most often generalizations by induction; or approximations in reality... fantasies of mind when an abstraction (or symbolic in form).
Fantasies are NOT true in the real world.
X is an attempt to represent something real (as a variable)... as an abstraction; to aid in theory our desire to predict physical behavior based upon what can be understood and represented in symbolic form.
X can NEVER be EXACTLY equal to another similar X (in reality). X is not even EQUAL to itself, it cannot be exactly X (in reality, from one subjective time frame to another subjective time frame); it can only be like (similar) to X (itself). There is no IDENTITY in reality. All energy is subject to change; even at absolute-zero. Change is constant; therefore constant is a NOT; IDENTITY as a truth is NOT; and even X is X or NOT X is a NOT.
