Well, sometimes different words mean the same thing. And we mustn't get too worried about it.

AFAIK, Charles Dickens never used the phrase at all, even though he carried one around with him most of his life. (Or to be pedantic, something very like one)


I stopped reading when you *seem* to have misquoted the theory
and asked for a clarifacation.
When you show us where SR deals with inertial interactions then
we can consider some propsitition about how it is interpreted or
misinterpreted.

I don't have the time or, more accurately I suppose, the inclination to show you everything that you want me to show you.

And I really won't trouble myself to clarify all your misunderstandings.

That was your mother's job.

Kindly give us the equation number(s) you feel is at fault in the
lecture linked above.

You obviously haven't been reading my posts.

All the ones with "t"'s in them.

Why do so many posters think it's strange that they don't understand what they haven't read?

It is very important in comprehension to identify the salient points of what you read and not to get bogged down in irrelevancies.

Of course, not comprehending is the far easier task. A task which you seem to have set for yourself.
