| Time does not require momentum.

tell that to the clocks ticking mechanism.
without a momentum happening somewhere, no time can be counted.

speed requires time, (and momentum)
time requires motion of a mass being counted at a periodic rate.
It is a never ending relationship.
If one happens (timing or momentum) the other must be happening also.

Say a box existed with perfect mirrors on each side. Inside two beams
of light are going back and forwards so when one hits one side the
other beam hits the other side. There is no momentum in the box.

Yet you could count how many times the beam of light hits one wall. It
is a clock but it has no momentum.
