Exactly. That's an objective measurement of time. But this subjective measurement of time, is not proven at all.
What are you talking about? Atomic clocks on Earth and atomic clocks in orbit objectively measure time differently due to their relative speeds and locations. This is what SR predicts, and this is what happens in fact.
How can anyone measure time as if it's a thing? We measure the effects of time, not time itself.
