Nope. A false statement cannot not 'make' an assertion false. I
swear to god you'd argue with St. Peter at the Pearly Gates.

Nobody said anything about aether. The medium through
which EM waves flow is space which indeed does have
a structure. Space is definitely not nothing.

On the contrary, we have every reason to believe it
acted differently before the first super nova. Things
that don't exist generally act differently from things
that do exist.

Today's second may be the first time the second
has ever had that particular value. The first
second was likely many magnitudes longer than
the present day second.

Are you kidding? Iron is the heaviest element possible
before the first supernova.

Who did that before cesium existed?

Sort of blurs the line between the plausible and the absurd, Cecil. The
fact that two things might share a particular trait does not eliminate
their differences.

But it sure does make your "entirely different"
assertion false, doesn't it? :-)

Have you ever heard of the fine structure constant? You had best check
into it and how it can be verified from a distance, a very very long
distance.
