There is no reason to believe that spacetime is anything but an approximation, which breaks down at Planck-length scales. We have events, and causal relationship between events. Events may not have precise spacetime coordinates.

Events are discrete, right? Doesn’t everything then appear to be discete?

  Events themselves are discrete, but they might have contiguous properties, like the associated point in spacetime, assuming a the contiguous spacetime is not just an approximation.
