Yes. BaTh is filled with ad hoc, completely unjustified

Oh, I understand all right. Your theory is a maze of ad hoc

Not true. If you double the distance and halve the
velocity then the ADoppler term stays the same but
the VDoppler term is halved (since it depends on
velocity but is independent of distance) so both
the shape and phase of the curve will alter.

Photons carry angular momentum Henry.

The angular momentum is quantised and the vector is
parallel to the direction of propagation.

However, none of that explains how a change of spin,
or even a twist, changes the time taken for two
javelins to travel the same distance to be different.
That is what happens in the Sagnac experiment, photons
sent in opposite directions round the ring do not
arrive at the detector simultaneously.

The question is self-contradictory so has to be split:

a) In the lab frame, the rays are seen to be moving at c.

b) In the source frame ("wrt the source"), the rays would
be seen to be moving at c.

c) In the lab frame, the difference between the speed of
the rays and the speed of the source is c+/-v.

Which of those three answers do you wish to dispute?

Yes it is Henry, because your single question includes
two frames. You can't even ask a sensible question.

There is no such thing as a "wrong frame", it is
merely the coordinate scheme you have chosen. You
still don't know what a frame is.

I answered it in a reply to that post.

Not. You can only measure the speed of the cars relative
to your measuring instruments. You can then _calculate_
the speed of one car wrt the other, which is effectively
predicting wat would be measured if your instrument were
in one of the cars measuring the speed of the other, but
that is a calculation that requires a coordinate transform
so differs between theories.

Not at all, it is a _prediction_ of what the driver
would _measure_ if he had your instrument in the
car with him. That's what the words "with respect to"
mean, they say you are using that object as the origin
of the measurement coordinate system. If I ask "where
is Chicago with respect to Washington?" you could
give me distances west and north using Washington as
the origin of those numbers. Do you get it yet?
