My question is not intended to claim victory over opponents. I'm just
curious of a modern uptodate definite formulation of this in different
theories. On one webpage first it seems to be, that there is an
age-difference, but continuing further it is somehow relativated, so
this theory is probably for people with more brain power than mine. But
it's intriguing me. May be there is a rather short, pregnant
formulation of the twin-voyages one can understand.
Exchanging some arguments about this might be of some interest too. But
we don't have to resolve the issue. And we can trust in the capabilty
of the readers, to form an own opinion, we don't have to force a theory
on them.

PS Just to play with open cards, i'm thinking of a third twin too,
"resting" on earth, i might argue about, that the twins are leaving not
in opposite directions, but at an right angle to each other and i might
point to the splitting of acceleration into two perpendicular
components, one changing the amount of speed, the other the direction
of movement
