It’s a rare result indeed: Einstein’s earliest and biggest with the “twins’ miracle” (misleadingly referred to as the “twins’ paradox”).

Almost two decades before the advent of quantum mechanics, which implies c-global independently, Einstein saw himself forced to abandon c-global even though it underlies the equivalence principle as an axiom, a fact that explains Einstein’s subsequent 3 ½ years of complete silence on the topic of gravity.

The then reluctantly adopted “c-nonglobal” is still consensus in physics to date. So despite the re-discovery of c-global nine years ago, first in the Schwarzschild metric and then in the equivalence principle.

Such historical delays are not unfamiliar in physics. In the present case, however, the planet currently bets its own survival on c-nonglobal, as no one denies.

It is very unusual to live in such an “interesting time” as the Chinese proverb goes: This is something you do not even wish your worst enemy.

Are there really no young scientists on the planet who are ready to check on the retrieved simplicity of the less than 32 years old Einastein’s c-global? It will bring you instant fame since no similarly beneficial (re-)discovery is on record.
