===============================================
D:
You can
talk your head off saying they don't make sense, or they don't work as
advertised, but the fact of the matter is, they DO exactly what they
DO, and no amount of rhetoric is going to stop a matrix from operating
on a vector.
===============================================
A:
Time is not a vector to be operated upon, it has no additive inverse.
[cos(phi), -sin(phi)] * [3 apples]
[sin (phi), cos(phi)] [2 oranges]
If phi = 45 degrees, how many straw apples and straw oranges do I get?
Sheesh!
It's not a rotation operation, it's a skew operation
[cosh(phi), -sinh(phi)] * ct
[-sinh (phi), cosh(phi)] x
where tanh(phi) = deltaV/c.
