Conservation laws are man made, if the underlying universe does not follow them then so be it.

As to other interactions their are a great many possibles but they don't mean much. For example restricting things so only light can move though time does not change the underlying options in terms of information and paradoxes.

PS: Mathematical rigor is again a human idea, our universe could be absolutely random and we would have no way of knowing. At best we can say that seems unlikely.

Well, we can also just say the same things about paradoxes of all types. Partially the point of science-fiction (and science/philosophy) is that our thought experiments have parameters consistent with our current knowledge of reality if no other restrictions are specified.
