If the universe were static, then a holographic interpretation might be plausible. But the universe is in constant motion. That would require the changes needed in the two dimensional space-time to represent 3 dimensional motion to have some dramatic instantaneous changes to allow for object to appear to pass each other, near each other, etc. Squeezing three dimensional space time into a two dimensional framework asks a lot of the two dimensional space time.
