Time can only be measured relative to something else.

No, Watts measure energy transfer over time.

Planck time is the smallest unit of time, and all other time is a multiple of planck time

isnt this correct? also if there is a planck length doesnt that mean that the side of the triangle and the hypotenuse are commensurable?

im pretty sure these ideas are not accepted and >>7936730 is bait/troll/meme. so what is wrong with how i am thinking about this?

>side of the triangle and the hypotenuse
Maybe the side of a square and its diagonal...?

This is arbitrary. It is only the smallest because we haven't bothered to make something smaller.

hippasus demonstrated that, if the hypotenuse of an isosceles right angle triangle was commensurable with a leg, than that unit of measurement is both odd and even, which is impossible. (see wiki page of irrational number)

why can't a planck length be that unit?

it is a thing caused by the enigmatic chronoton particle
