Let's face it, you never really say anything in the end. We can see
this in the guff like that above. "nailed it down," now there's a
charming non-sequitur. Maxwell preceded him by decades with the
definition of the speed of light - Einstein certainly nailed nothing
there. Maxwell's equations are nothing if not universally applicable,
Einstein didn't add anything that pounded any nail there either. And
to hail-Mary it with
while all other parameters
are subject to relativity effects.
contradicts Einstein explicitly in that he taught that "all laws of
physics are the same within all inertial frames of reference."
Einstein did not exclude anything.
