Nonsense, although "the electrodynamics of
moving bodies" pays tribute to Euclidean space,
those who know relativity understand fully that
"space" has no attributes.

So now light is also the carrier of inertia and gravity?
The concept of spacetime is exactly the opposite
of what the novice may think. Instead of a controlling
"medium", it is a stretchable maginary map, showing that
space has _NO_ attributes, and that there are no "forces"
acting at a distance.
This may be difficult for Newtonians because Euclidean
space is essential for Newtonian mechanics.
I am sorry that I cannot agree that light or any other
electromagnetic "charge" could be responsible for gravity
and inertia, because that would be an easy explanation,
but a more complicating -- wrong -- explanation.
