So I invite you to imagine what the editorial process
was. How did a paper with such obvious errors end
up being blessed by the editors and referees and
published in a research journal?


Easy.
By the time (1905) there was a lot of practial and
actual problems that need to be solved.
All of them depend on the light speed and how
such problems should be presented and understood,
since light takes time to travel.

And Einstein get it perfectly.

There are a set of typical and limited problems that
can be perfectly understood by means of relativity.

The evolution pos-Einstein, taken be those who
couldn't understand the limitation of the theory,
somehow created all this mess.
