There is a 1:1 correlation between space and time, especially in this example. From an observer, the big bang is seen through space, at a distance. However, the objective and unobservable size of the universe is larger than that... and it can be over twice that observed distance.
Still it is semantics... so don't worry about it. If you understand my example, it would be better to ask... can the universe be continuous if it is un-traversably large, or is there some sort of mega-macroscopic quantization going on, which could imply some sort of emergent macro-forces might exist.
