Before Einstein, Lorentz's aether theory satisfactorily explained the
MMX
null
result via his LTs. However, in spite of this, the null result was
still
taken
as sound evidence that no aether exists. That is still the official
verdict.

It is a fact, that because of Lorentz's (Fitzgerald's) supposed
'contractions',
it is a feature of LET that any observer moving through the aether
will
always
MEASURE the OW speed of light as being c.


This is wrong. OWLS never been measured.

Of course it's been measured.

Now, you may object that it's not been measured using a distance
measured with sticks and two clocks at either end, but that's not the
only way to measure OWLS.

Deciding to measure it some way other than the way you want it to be
measured is probably a good decision.

ROTFLOL....Here's what you are saying: We dont want to measure OWLS the
normal way.

"Normal way"? What is the "normal way" and why is it the "normal way"?

We invented a new way to measure OWLS so that the result is
guaranteed to be c.

Independent measurements of wavelength and frequency is guaranteed to
produce a result of c? Why? If you do the same measurements with the
same instruments in air, the answer is not c. So how is it guaranteed
to be c?

PD

How do you measure the frequency of a single photon, Draper?

Who said anything about a single photon, and why would that matter,
Henri?
