> If we froze a single instance of space & time, we would see a universe sitting still.

I don't believe that mental experiment proves what you think. If you freeze time, there wouldn't be anyone that could make observations. You might as well choose one fixed point in the universe, eliminating space considerations, and think about its whole story from the beginning to the end of time; that would be as real as a frozen universe.

I think of reality as a goo of vibrating stuff, encompassing all matter and energy. Matter creates space, and the vibrations of change create time.
