Then why don't you use those two spatially separated and synchronized
clocks to measure OWLS?????

Hey cretin! The speed of light is 300,000 km/sec relative to its source,
close enough for government work. Why the obsession with measurement?

I would not use the word "absolutely" for this. But yes, clocks that are
synchronized and co-located will be observed to be synchronized by all observers.

No, the clocks cannot possibly be separated in a manner "identical in all
frames". You REALLY NEED to do this exercise:

As I said, your hubris is OUTRAGEOUS.

Hafele & Keating, Henri.

Its' been done, and doesn't work the way you demand.

Kinetic energy is not altered by movement either, yet the observed kinetic
energy depends on the reference frame.

Length is not altered by movement either, yet if you view a ruler at
different angles you'll get different lengths.

Time is not altered by movement either, yet one clock on the ground runs
differently from another clock that's above it.

Alter your notions before forcing everyone else to change theirs.

Really? It does?

You do not perform observations, do experiments, read literature, or
anything else scientists do. Yet you claim to know better.

Really, and where on Earth is that observed?

Plenty against it and none for it. You can't refute any of the references,
so just keep on pretending they don't exist.

This has been answered many times, Ken. Because the details of this
experimental test contains sources of experimental error that are not
present in indirect measurements. That is the art of experimental
design, and why some indirect tests produce results of higher quality
than direct measurements. I realize that you have no idea why this is.

The fact is that experimentally, the direct OWLS measurement would not
produce a result that is competitive or better than the quality of the
combined results from TWLS and anisotropy measurements.
