No ***! The LT assumes that the local speed of light is the
same in all frames. In fact, it assumes that the global
speed of light is the same in all frames.

You're objecting to something because you imply that
something ought to be there but isn't, but the the
thing that you're objecting to never said that that ought
to be there.

You're jerking yourself around.
