Please name one.

Length is NOT physically affected by velocity change.
Nor are clock rates .

One doesn't need an experiment to prove that an object cannot both lengthen and
shrink simultaneously.

According to SR, each observer has his own personal reference frame (an aether
type medium) in which light travels at c.
