Here Temporal Mechanics and its associated zero-dimensional number theory ask if there is a root cause to all the issues in contemporary physics, whether mathematical, philosophical, a combination, or something else, issues regarded here as chimeras. Some of these chimeras are proposed to include dark energy, dark matter, quantum gravity, wormholes, to name a few. Specifically, here shall be examined the current basis of physics’ own number theory utilities that result in these chimeras, and why physics has been unable to link flat and curved spacetime, namely why physics has failed to reconcile QFT with GR, and what the implications are for physics by its proposed phenomenal promises of those theories. A number theory solution to these chimeras and associated number theory processes is derived as 1@0 timespace describing a universal frame of reference upholding the known limit of c and its features of relativity, thence describing a new model for quantum mechanics and gravity in the same number theory context, both compatible with all known findings of EM and gravity in physics research.
