There is a problem in what you just said, and you
refuse to admit it. Yes, SR math correctly models
what we measure. This is what we *see*! And all
experimental data (being data from our tools) will
confirm it because it is what is measured.
And this is very useful and important.
This makes SR math valuable. But in SR,
where it uses velocities that are near light speed,
what is measured is not perfectly what is actually
happening.


Show me the certificate where 'GOB' has been appointed 'GOD' and I will
believe you know what is actually happening.

Until then, you have no more clue as to what 'actually happens' than anyone
else.

All anyone has to go on is their measurements, their model, and their
philosophy.

You admit we need not discuss the measurements.
You admit the models work.
And you refuse to be honest with yourself and admit to yourself that you
are quibbling over philosophy.
