By the way, I found your initial post very interesting, and worth further consideration, especially since the claims re the
Lorentz transformation have always bothered me on a level I really can't articulate properly.
Perhaps you don't really understand what transformations
are supposed to do.
It seems logical to me that the transformation should only be illusory, not actual yet, from what I can tell, it is asserted as an
actual, physical transformation.
Yes, indeed... you have missed something somewhere.
Another of my main curiosities concerns the math: Why is it a given y' = y when, from what I can see, it shouldn't? It appears
that, since y' is also subjected to forward movement, it should transform as well, though not as markedly as x'.
It seems that you don't understand what these variables represent.
x' and y' are numbers.
Numbers are not subject to forward movement.
Do you know what x' and y' actually represent?
