What I mean to say is. The GR explanation is
intuitive and easy. Spacetime distorts and because
measurement creates reality. Time slowing down
can be understood. But in a newtonian explanation.
What does it mean that an atom slows down. Since
measurement doesn't create reality. How can
the atom or say chemical reactions of the body
simply go in slow motion... is this possible at all...
what principles forbid this.... hmm...
