It's written in lore that nothing came before the precursors. Thousands of years maybe millions before time

I get ur guys point both races are very old but it is not possible to come before time. It goes against they physical, mathematical and hypothetical definition of time i dont give a shit what either games lore says. Also due to general relatively it is possible that even though a race has been around for billions of years there could be someone who relative to them has been around for a few seconds or much longer. Example based on earths location and speed the universe for us is 13.5 billion years old but elsewhere it could be 100 billion years old or even less than a minute old. Point is if one species predates everyone else in their part of the universe that does not mean they predate life elsewhere

Precursors are not of the physical realm, or they could've existed in the universe that existed before the main Halo universe. So it's certainly possible.
-
It is illogical to believe that life can predate matter. It is a huge assumption to say they predate the entire universe
-
They are not of our physics or concepts. They are not support to be possible in our reality. They can literally change the universe's consciousness and in extension the laws of physics to suit their needs.

You do know the precursors created all matter and life right. They even made themselves physical forms. It has nothing to do with real logic it has to do with Halo logic.
