Yeah, I was just thinking of all those missed opportunities...

Yes, every atom of your body existed a billion years ago, just somewhere else. If you travel back or forward in time, you would essentially be ‘creating’ mass that did not exist previously in that universe, which is a no-no..............

Last I saw, if a person was suddenly thrown into space it would only take about 90 seconds for them to freeze.

Well, except that time is relative, and that what we think of as "time travel" actually does take place. See twins paradox, played out on much smaller time variation with GPS system.
Everything is going forward in time though.
I do agree with you that the "replicator" aspect is forbidden. Still made for a good story.

I’m assuming that the Time traveler and his/her machine would be akin to a self-contained small spaceship, with a limited amount of oxygen and environmental controls.............

Time is a derivative function of state change which progresses relative to E within the inertial frame(s) in which it is observed.
And “Time Travel” is bullshyte.

"Can’t his future self just come back in time and give him all the research results? That way he won’t have to go through all the work." T'were it possible, that would have already happened.
~But~
You can't travel through something that isn't there.

Reminds me of a girl in my College Bio study group. We all assemble for the evening and she’s there maybe 2 minutes max into the session.
She announces “I’ve got this” and heads out on a date. I advised she stay and spend the probably 2, maybe 3 hours with the group, which was 6-8 of us. Professor was used to teaching doctors so he had fairly-difficult tests.
She scoffed. She left. She got slaughtered by the exam, of course.
