You're right.

The only thing stopping me from reading those books is the pre-reqs.

Which I'm working on.

No money? Go to the library.

Can't get to the library? Use the resources on the internet. God knows

Can't figure out torrents? Read the free resources on the internet.

Can't figure out anything even with the full might of Google, arXiv,
and USENET at your disposal?

Find a new hobby. I suggest gardening, riding a bike, or reading.

The full might of USENET? That's a good one.

I asked if someone could explain the Tolman surface brightness test.

Let's see its might in action.

basic knowledge of cosmology is so sparse that you have no reason to
be discussing the topic.
