Its obvious to everyone who discusses relativity. But it is always
implied what one means by "stationary" etc.

It quite literally means something like "With respect to frame S". But
people don't bother adding this since everyone who discusses
relativity implicitly knows what it means. I can always add in "with
respect to frame S" but that doesn't really help since, to be
meaningful, I'd then have to say what that frame is and what its
motion is with respect to something else.

You're incorrectly assuming that all frames of reference are MCRFs.
That is incorrect. Its quite meaningful to speak of an inertial frame
of reference S and not have anything at rest in it. Thus if one is
concerned only with a single object then its quite meaningful to speak
of motion of such an object with respect to such a frame

Such a statement tells me that your unfamilar with sal.

And hence androcles proves once again that he's totally clueless on
relativity.
I see nothing has changed since I left.
