Time as implemented in our current universe (which has counter intuitive properties, such a universal speed limit, which math does not require). It is possible that there is a version of time “before” the emergence of our physical “implementation” of space-time. There is no reason to stop assuming that the mathematical property of contingency doesn’t extend beyond the BigBang. Math is the foundation of Physics, not the other way around.

Intrinsically information about prior contingencies are unrecoverable "before" recurrence. But unrecoverable is not "non-existent."
