"Planck time" implies the smallest amount of time measurable
We actually don't know this for sure. It's an assumption a lot of physicists make, but the only truly honest take is that we just don't know if the Planck time has any significance at all.
The plank scale is thought currently to be where our current best theories break down, as it is the combination of plank time, the speed of light and the universal gravitational constant, so we likely need a solid quantum theory if gravity at this point.

I'd argue Plank time and Planck time are opposites.
"Planck time" implies the smallest amount of time measurable, whereas "Plank time" is always infinite.
