The relativity of simultaneity as explained in
SR is the greatest farce ever. The claim that

science.

If you want to discuss SR's "simultaneity" then use *its* definitions;
do not use your definition (your concept).

SR defines "time" and "simultaneity" in a specific way. When you use
SR's definitions, SR *implies* that two events which are simultaneous
for an observer will not be simul. for another (moving) observer.
