Ha, I'm not into marketing, and I don't claim to fully understand the
argument about Algol. I take it that you are saying that it is not an
eclipsing binary, but rather a binary system, with a massive planet in
sort of a trojan orbit around the more massive? Or that the speed of
light is not a constant? Or both? Dammit, I'm no astronomer!

You don't need to be an astonomer to find out lightspeed can not be
constant to all frames.
You can actually tell by the word itself "lightspeed"
The last half of the word, "speed" is a gigantic clue
Simply stated, if lightspeed is a "speed" at all, it must be relative
and can not be "constant" to all frames of reference.

Forgive my ignorance. The speed of light is a "local" constant, but
not a "global" constant, correct? For all non-accelerating frames, c
is a constant, at least according to generally accepted theory.
Accelerating observers can observe different speeds of light?
