"To postulate" in physics means
"to assume to be an experimental result";
however, in this case, this is not possible.

I completely disagree. When something is postulated
in physics, it is taken as an *unsupported* assumption ...

What exactly is being _assumed_ in the one-way light
speed invariance case? ((The 2nd postulate case))

One-way light speed invariance. Doh!
