If you want the appropriate mathematical structure, the timeline models a one-dimensional real affine space, in which Durations are vectors and Instants are points; it's a vector space that has forgotten its origin (the choice of epoch is arbitrary and not a distinguished point of the space - as evidenced by how many of them there are).
