Time Drift from the Law of Creation: a parameter-free derivation of cosmic age and Hubble probe-projection in Quantum Traction Theory

Three faces of laboratory time: tilt, drift, and dilation Under the paper's declared A3 trace-channel bridge, QTT fixes the leading creation-induced clock angle before the cosmic-age comparison: \[ \delta_{\rm cre}^{(0)}=\frac{\pi}{48}=3.75^\circ,\qquad dt_{\rm meas}=\cos\!\left(\frac{\pi}{8}\right)F_{\rm drift}(T,x)N_{\rm dil}(x^\mu,u)\,dT. \] The homogeneous projection then gives t0=T0cos(7π/48). For the independently frozen ABC-ledger value T0=15.4 Gyr, this is 13.81184 Gyr, about 0.65 Planck statistical standard deviations from the quoted Planck-pipeline age before assigning ledger uncertainty. Scientific result: a QTT zero-fit conditional source-explanatory victory for the leading Time Drift angle. The condition is explicit: the A3 trace-channel reading is the paper-proposed bridge. Standard cosmological inference retains its fitted parameter and nuisance structure; QTT removes an independently fitted leading drift angle inside its stated constructor. Probe-specific Hubble trajectories and the host-ordering discriminator remain empirical tests. They are not used to select π/48 after the fact.
