Building flat space-time from information exchange between quantum fluctuations

We consider a hypothesis in which classical space-time emerges from information exchange (interactions) between quantum fluctuations in the gravity theory. In this picture, a line element would arise as a statistical average of how frequently particles interact, through an individual rate $dt\sim 1/f_t$ and spatially interconnecting rates $dl\sim c/f$. The question is if space-time can be modelled consistently in this way. The ansatz would be opposite to the standard treatment of space-time as insensitive to altered physics at event horizons (disrupted propagation of information) but by extension relate to the connection of space-time to entanglement (interactions) through the gauge/gravity duality. We make a first, rough analysis of the implications this type of quantization would have on the classical structure of flat space-time, and of what would be required of the interactions. Seeing no obvious reason for why the origin would be unrealistic, we comment on expected effects in the presence of curvature.
