Thanks for the post, reminds me to re-read Proust it’s probably been a good few years.
As regards your post, I tend to think that just as the past consists of recollections, with all events having happened objectively but having become colored by myriad factors as the present grinds forward. The objective reality of said events becomes obscured - as such, I’d argue that in the same way that the past becomes subjective based upon the observer- there is no determined future in much the same way, due to the random minutae of daily interactions with the present and the differences of the interpretations of observers ultimately make all past or future events.
Perhaps the real paradox is that we know that past events happened objectively, and that future events will happen objectively, most questions of either will remain in the realm of subjectivity begging the question of whether anything actually exists outside the realm of the subjective?

Just a thought 🤷
