Well, you are unable to see the fallacy in the mathematics of the
Lorentz transform. <shrug>

PD is really fvcked.

Einstein, Born, and Moller invoked gravitational time dilation to
explain aging based on the effect of acceleration.

No paradox there. Try again

That's correct. No paradox there. Try again.

It there is no change of frame of reference, then yes.

If there IS a change in frame of reference (eg If the clock was at
rest in some frame and then moves to another location), then its frame
of reference is not inertial.

You seem to ignore this.

Nope.

I've shown elsewhere that relativity of synchronicity (part of SR's
Lorentz transforms), means that clock sync is frame dependent.

That allows for mutual time dilation. Do I need to repost the example
that shows how this can work for you again?

Before you start your usual diversion of accusing me of being a liar
(instead of addressing the physics) ... Here is a link to my previous
post in a related thread that shows how differences in clock sync give
you mutual time dilation:

You mean the one you've been asked to show and of which you have
failed to produce evidence ?

Yes, in part. According to SR a moving clock will appear to run slower
both when it is moving away and when it is approaching, since velocity
is squared in the transform.

The paradox inherent in Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies, and the
paradoxes arising from it, namely the twin paradox and the triplet
paradox.

No, that is not the case.
