Hey idot without this stipulation then the gedanken is meaningless.

Hey idiot you are putting up straw-men. Both frames agree that the bug
dies at the instant when the end of the rivet hits the bug. Thereore
your claim that from the hole point of view the bug is still alive due
to length contraction of the rivet is bogus.

Sigh... no experiment supports physical or material length
contraction.

No such experiment ever been done. In fact there is no physical or
material length contraction. Why Because it gives rise to paradoxes
such as the bug and the rivet paradox and the barn and the pole
paradox.

Sure...if you want to use physical as not material then you need to
define what that meaning means....but you refuse to do so.

> You do NOT get to say "physical" does not mean "geometric".

If physical means geometrical then why do you need the term physical
to explain length contraction???....is it design to fool the public?
One question: if length contraction is only geometrical then how come
a ball will flatten to a pancake materially in the direction of
motion. Also what is that motion that causes the flattening?
