It is the basic question.

Yes, of course, and any physicist knows this credit is given.
You'll note that in Einstein's work, he supposes that the relativity
that is *already known to work* in Newtonian mechanics also works in
electrodynamics. If you'll read Newton's work, you'll see that he
acknowledges the work that was *already done* by Galileo.
Einstein acknowledges Newton, Newton acknowledges Galileo.
All's right with the world.
Was there something you missed?
