No, not really. See below...

Well, since all 'local' time and distance relate by behavior explained
by 'Lorentz' AND alway have the very same measured values as that
which would be measured in the rest frame I'd say that WAS! local
Lorentz invariance'... Since the results are exactly the same as SR
and for such behavior of time and distances your claim IS! patently
absurd!

In LR the IS! no differences in ANY! behaviors OR properties in any
inertial frame, including the CMBR dipole = 0 one. To be otherwise
would also require the physical universe to be internally
inconsistent. Now, if, somehow one can 'step out' of our physical
universe and become independent and unaffected of its processes LR
says that with properly 'rigid' instruments you could actually measure
length changes, thus, light speed anisotropy. But, in OUR universe it
Dirac's dilemma..ALL physical processes behave like all fluidic
mediums and for system consisting solely of structures made of said
fluidic media results in LLI.

So, produce a property of observation that will result in a LLI
violation for LR. If you cannot then you are blowing smoke. OTOH, if
you can, the the two theories are not indistigushable now are they?

Let see if you can understand the simpleton approach. The CMB is to
the spacial aether as background noise is to the ocean. It silly to
think the CMB IS! a medium, the CMB is propagating radiation IN! the
medium. It would help your case if you had some actual depth to your
replies instead of shallow insults...

And certainly don't expect anything of substance from you.

'An Astronomer Puts the COSMOS Survey In Perspective'
http://seedmagazine.com/content/article/found_most_of_the_universe/

"Dark matter, the ubiquitous yet ethereal stuff filling the cosmos,
has been mapped three-dimensionally for the first time by a team of
astronomers using a fleet of orbiting and ground-based telescopes."

"As time went on, more and more data suggested that the bulk of the
Universe is invisible."

"The result is nothing less than profound: a three-dimensional map
millions of light years across and billions deep, showing the location
of trillions of solar masses of invisible ethereal stuff that only
decades ago was a complete mystery."

The theory described in the article is not quite accurate:

"COSMOS verifies theory’s next prediction, too: Once dark matter
condensed into smaller blobs, its gravity would increase, drawing in
more dark matter and normal matter. Eventually, the normal matter
would gather near clumps of dark matter, so wherever we see large
amounts of dark matter today, we should also see normal matter. The
survey confirms this; the visible matter detected lies roughly along
the same positions as the dark matter."

Dark matter and matter are different states of the same material.
Where the pressure in the universe is great enough, dark matter is
compressed into matter. This process continues until the pressure
between the dark matter and matter equalizes because there is less
dark matter.

Nuclei which is the matter which is the Earth displaces dark matter.
Dark matter is not at rest when displaced and displaces back.
Displaced dark matter exerts pressure towards the Earth.
Pressure exerted by displaced dark matter towards Earth is gravity.

Say that all you want, it means nothing, because that is not what "local Lorentz
invariance" actually means.

That is not how one establishes LLI. For LET (LR) the equations for observable
quantities agree with those of SR, which has LLI. But there are other equations
of LET (LR) that don't obey LLI, such as velocity wrt the ether frame. The mere
existence of a special frame violates LLI.
