Needless to say (to anyone capable of coherent thought), the
difference in the amount of candle burning that has occurred for the
round-trip candle and the stay-at-home candle does not "differentiate
in any fundamental sense between different inertial frames". In
complete accord with the theory of retarded potentials and the
Lorentzian concept of absolute time (as well as with the principles of
special relativity and countless experimental confirmations), the
phenomena differentiate between inertial and non-inertial paths. The
complete reciprocity and symmetry between different inertial frames is
strictly maintained. The inability to grasp this is what distinguishes
crackpots like yourself from people who are capable of genuine
rational thought.

It is only necessary to to watch both candles on CCTV
with equal length cables to see if one candle burns faster.

<< it is impossible to perform a physical experiment
which differentiates in any fundamental sense between
different inertial frames. By definition, Newton's laws
of motion take the same form in all inertial frames.
Einstein generalized this result in his special theory
of relativity by asserting that all laws of physics
take the same form in all inertial frames. >>
