And yet the Kats are using recurrent play on top 40/pop stations to prove their point.

i think it's pretty clear that no one is saying katy is already timeless, but rather that based on that fact that her music is getting more views, plays, etc. CURRENTLY shows indication that she will be more timeless than gaga's music, also because gaga's is stale and very dated.
unless gaga really brings it with her next album (which i really hope for!)

That's my point. Current and timeless are opposites. Timeless means that in 20 years from now, the song will still be played and remembered. The only receipts you can use to prove something will be timeless is sales, which both women have in their favor.
I'll repeat myself, if you think a song that has sold 14m copies WW will not be remembered in 20 years, you're not just deluded, you're stupid. This goes for both stanbases and for both women.
Nobody is going to remember all of Katy's singles or all of Gaga's singles, only the biggest and most successful, just like people only remember Michael and Madonna's biggest, most successful singles. Both women will undoubtedly have timeless songs 20 years from now as they've defined this generation's musical output (along with a couple of others). The whole "more timeless" makes no sense because you can't be "more timeless" than something or someone else. Either you're timeless or you're not and only Kats are in here trying to argue a certain popstar isn't.
