"bounded entropy field becoming a quantized object of time through proof-of-work tells us anything important about reality. You cannot subdivide the temporal state transition the data represents." This is pseudo-scientific word salad. You could say the exact same thing about eating a ham sandwich.

You clearly don’t grasp what a difficulty-scaled 32-bit nonce space even is, let alone what it means for computation or information theory. If you can’t relate mining to a bounded entropy search, then of course anything about quantized state transitions is a word salad to you. If you can’t understand a probabilistic search over a finite space and the collapse it into a single verifiable state, you cant possible connect that process to entropy, nor do you understand the object you’re trying to dismiss. At this point, I’m not arguing with a counterposition, I’m just explaining the process of Bitcoin to someone who doesn’t understand it at the level necessary to engage.
