We already know that's not the cause. Time is the same no matter which way you travel through the universe. Time is changed by the speed that you travel through space.

I think OP means the expansion of the universe / space-time itself, not the direction of our travel through it.

Isn't time warped near massive objects though?

How can you say it's the same no matter which way you travel but also say it's changed by speed?

I interpreted it as, if you traveled towards the expanse or towards the center, you would expect to see opposite time warps or something measurable. As you mentioned, speed and mass have been the only measurable anomalies we know of, so it doesn't appear tied to the expanse

If you travel at the speed of light time slows down .. something like that
