Alright, I can accept that. It's kind of like the anthropic principle, in a way: "If a certain perception of time must be true for closed loops to exist, then it is true because they exist." The rules are weird, illogical, and counter-intuitive, but they make for a decent story (as long as we accept that they only exist within that story).
