Q5: If time was symmetric, the second law of thermodynamics invalid, and matter would switch between going forward and backward in time in the same fashion as they switch between going left or right in space, would it be easier for us to acknowledge a deterministic universe?
The timeline of each entity of matter would be written on a tape, that some force pushes forward and backward along the dimension of time. All there is is the moment of NOW, that comes alive with the (nearly) infinite

Q4: If we extract time from our space-time reality, space remains a valid concept as it holds matter in a multiplicity of possible states, yet how does the concept of time remain if we extract space from our space-time reality and all matter is compressed into one space unit?
How does change happen, if everything is restricted to the same location?

Q2: If time had 2 dimensions, would we perceive a bouncing ball that bounces off into the 2nd temporal dimension (perpendicular to our usual time dimension) as existing at one instant in multiple states at once?
Multistability. Growing years older form one second to the other (by lived along the other timeline). Useful for magic tricks.

Q1: Would two particles, that live in an infinite empty universe and always make the same exact movement at the same time, be able to discover the existence of time and space?
Their only frame of reference is the distance between them.
