What are real are time intervals.

Distances are derivatives of the more fundamental
time intervals.

distance = time interval * constant

Note that distance can be any value you desire,
depending upon what you use for your constant.

Distances, as measured with a ruler,
are nasty, temperature sensitive,
bending sensitive, acceleration sensitive,
contamination sensitive, pressure sensitive beasts.

The fundamental interval between two points
is an interaction time,
which can be quantized to its' greatest precision
using the most precise time standard.

Standard time is not real time, but the time of beaurocratic idiot
baloney salesmen who have declared it to be such. Time measurements
are not real time, any more than distance measurements are real time.
Only true angular time can be defined to be such.
