He couldn't have created it as eternal? That it all literally sprang into being with structures apparently trillions of years old already?

You have an awfully limited view of God.

Then it wouldn't be eternal - it would only contain the lie, the illusion of eternity.

If the universe is eternal then there was never a time when there wasn't a universe - erasing the need to have it be created.

My view of God doesn't include “Last Thursday-ism” - such is a useless speculation - as all reality would conform to there actually being a reality and existence before last Thursday.

And while your view of God may indeed include many preposterous and/or contradictory things - my view of God includes only the one described in the Bible.

The God of the Bible created the universe. The universe did not always exist.
