Very true. In fact, the issue of wormholes comes up when one begins to discribe the quatum states itself. Some see the microscopic tunneling as being via wormholes. The problem there is the exotic energy requirement in the first place that tends at least at macroscopic scales to violate certain quantum energy conditions. Going down in scale one also encounters a wavefunction spread on anything one is trying to measure that makes it impossible to measure certain qualities exactly. Here time itself tends to break down.

When you consider a zero time frame itself there is not much of a difference between saying the object exists as if it was at C(with Lorentz time contraction to zero) and that its in an alternative frame where say C is infinite. Both result in a zero time experience. DSR(Double Special Relativity) somewhat hits upon this notion itself. Either way we cannot break time down small enough to actually measure events.

I also agree with the other statement made in a prior post concerning math. One can have mathamatical proofs that work out fine and have nothing to do with reality. Its the uncertanity principle that places our limits at present at understanding this. Untill we have a better grasp of what time exactly is we for the most part stuck with philosophical debate when it comes to this issue. Yes, multiverse type theory would tend to support there is movement there. But that same theory when combined with relativity also tends to show these paths are not the shortcut to everywhere some would like them to be. There is a vast difference between quantum information exchange and normal informational paths. While the first seems by EPR experiments to work in some kind of Instantaneous Frame from our perspective the second requires a more long term path. Also, even the first path requires the long path to actual measure anything.
