Hmm. I think the key question is “Are there observable effects from you torturing me?” when Omega did it, there weren’t. Where the observable effects would have occurred, I blinked, I.E, nothing happened.
I think this is distinct from you torturing me right now, because there would be observable effects, which would fade away into history slowly over time. Eventually, it wouldn’t be noteworthy any more, but that would take a long time to occur.
A big difference is that you can’t hit a “Reverse to Status Quo Ante” button, like Omega can, of course.
So, in the future, speaking of my life in particular will likely be gibberish, (I say likely because I am assuming I’m not important a billion years from now, which seems likely.) but it isn’t gibberish right now, might be a better way of putting it.

Would that make it more clear?
