I'm never a fan of gratuitous timeskips that are simply there because people feel they ought to have been there.  Making this the case retroactively would mean it took Slough millions of years to walk around the shore of the Fractal Sea, for instance, but I suppose time's relative for deities.

These aren't timeskips, more timeframes within which things just happened. I wouldn't say that Slough walking took millions of years, but the creations that have come about while she walked have certainly taken a long time (something like the oasis, while not seeming to take long for Slough, probably took thousands upon thousands of years)
