Conceptual Problem for Ken Seto |
Ken, consider two entities, A and B, experiencing relative motion
such that each measures dv/dt = 0 and c > |dr/dt| >> 0 with respect
to each other.
Consider observer A. A will *measure* B's clock to run slow.
Similarly, B will *measure* A's clock to run slow. And, of course,
this is expected due to the symmetric relationship between A and B.
The degree of *measured* time dilation is exactly as is predicted
by SR.
Furthermore, let |dr/dt| equal 17000 km/s. Then A will measure B's
clock to run slow by a factor of 1.0016, and B will *measure* A's
clock to run slow by a factor of 1.0016.
Each measures the other's clock to run slower than her own. There
is nothing wrong with that.

Ken does not understand things like
dv/dt = 0
let alone things like
c > |dr/dt| >> 0
See, for instance

Ken only understands words.
Well, a few words, at least.

And those are mostly one-syllable words, and never three-syllable
words. He also likes to frequently use words (especially long ones)
that he doesn't understand.

Don't be silly. It's a waste electrons of trying to explain anything
to the kenseto.
After all, he has no input bandwidth and no processing power.
His brain operates as a NIGO: Nothing In, Garbage Out.
