Before. 1929 - 1905 = 24 years
What Einstein (and you) fail to realise is that c = wf
and f remains unchanged.
Because f = 1/t, c = w / t
and that's just length divided by time (by definition).
You are both too stupid to see that, though.
BTW, a diffraction grating measures angle, not wavelength.
The greater the velocity, the smaller the angle, so red-shifted
light is arriving slowly.
Perhaps I'll make a gif to show it some day.
