Note that you're assuming that a nanosecond is a tiny amount of time. It's tiny relative to what we're used to, but as far as what "implements the universe" goes, a nanosecond could be enough time for a huge amount of occurrences to happen within. We don't know.

I did not assume nor imply it's tiny in any "absolute" sense.

Then why is "every second" a "huge claim" and "every nanosecond" "even a bigger claim"?

It's only linearly bigger I suppose.
