Well, you list "rate of change" among your phenomena, but deny time as part of the phenomena. But how can rate of change be a "real" phenomena without time also being "real" in the same sense? "Rate of change" is really "rate of change with respect to time", after all.

There are slow rivers and quick ones. Even same river has spots with different rates of flow. But there is still no time.)
