The speed of light can not be physically constant to all



The speed of light, 186,000 miles per second (rounded off of course),
can not be constant to all observers simply because it is a speed.
There is no such thing as a speed that can be constant to all observers
For such a speed to be constant to all observers it would have to
be able to ignore and adjust (instantly) to the relative motion of all
things.

c is not a constant.
It is a speed and all speeds are variable to a relative observer.
