No, it is a logical inference derived from Einstein's description of time dilation and his postulate that there is not preferred frame of reference.

SR is merely an interpretation to the Lorentz transform. So, it is a really a moot point to go further with SR. However, the math involved is the Lorentz transform where it specifies WITHOUT EXCEPTION that any moving frame regardless in acceleration or not will be observed to be time dilated by anyone, anywhen, and anywhere. <shrug> > But perhaps I really don't know anything about this stuff - > however I hope you won't reveal this to my current employer or former > teachers that let me pass the exams. Oh, playing with my psych a little bit, eh? > But perhaps you could now show how the solution of the symmetric twin > paradox provided earlier was flawed? The flaw is in jumping frame and allowed the mathemagic tricks to be played while doing that and thus violating the Lorentz transform. Furthermore, the confusion lends itself through two different transforms that are similar but behave drastically differently in principle. From history, the first transform satisfying electromagnetism (other than the Galilean in which light is modeled as pure classical particles) to explain the null results was the Voigt transform in 1887. The second one was Larmor's transform right around the time when Teddy Roosevelt charged up the San Juan Hills in Cuba sparking the building of the American Empire. Both the Voigt and Larmor's transforms do not satisfy the principle of relativity, and thus there is no twins' paradox to speak of. Lorentz finally realized there are indeed an infinite such transforms that will explain the null results of the MMX and electromagnetism. All these transform cannot satisfy the principle of relativity. Poincare was the one who saw the way how Larmor's transform is written where any two observers are moving in parallel relative to the stationary background of the Aether can be rewritten to show a complete elimination of the absolute frame of reference, and Larmor's transform becomes the Lorentz transform in this case. However, that is indeed very misleading. In general, the Lorentz transform is not valid.
