no, you don't. The meter is the length, not the space, which is a
dimension. You use space to count lengths, here meters.

I actually do, because 'meter' is the name of a unit, which is used to measure 'length'.
The length is a physical quantity, which is measured in meters (in the SI-unit-system), but the meter is not length (because it is a unit and not a quantity).
'Space' needs an additional qualifier, because it can have several different uses.
Apparently, you want to address the physical space around you with 'space'.
This space is actually three-dimensional.
If you like to eliminate time-dependency, you end up with Euclidean space.
That space has three dimensions of the type length.
