Time is never a problem on the God level. Or space. Whatever needed to deceive you was provided. But no more… — Robert A. Heinlein
Time is never a problem on the God level. Or space. Whatever needed to deceive you was provided. But no more than that. That is the conservative principle in art at the God level. While I can't do it, not being at that level, I have seen a lot of it done. A skillful Artist in shapes and appearances does no more than necessary to create His effect.
