You are trying desperately to establish the axiom that the Creator must have temporal limits else The Creator cannot

I don't think JCB is trying to that at all. He correctly observes that God is not changeless, but would have to change in order to start creating. Without time there can be no "start", no beginning.

"He correctly observes that God is not changeless, but would have to change in order to start creating."

Ah! the old "centrism trap"! Even our resident Yabbut seems unable to escape the assumption that he and his universe are all that is.

By what authority or logic do you claim that this is the only created universe, and that God did not create others before and after He created ours?

To me God is changeless in His nature -- not in his choices of what He does. Or are you so omnipotent as to claim otherwise?
