That nonsense is the paradox that I am talking about. Facts from one
coordinate system do get mixed and matched with facts from other
coordinate systems. An example of the is clock synchronisation for
GPS sattelites.

But the logic and the math are only required to 'appear consistent'
under certain sets of circumstances.

I assume that you mean from within a single inertial frame of
reference.

Or follow the proper rules when changing frames.

What are the rules for determining time dilation when changing frames?
