Can you give an example of a system which is not based on axioms? There is none. There may be hidden assumptions but there will always be axioms. Axioms are simply definitions that are kept constant. In your case you make the assumption tha

You say "inertial reference frame at rest with respect to any massive particle..." Is your particle moving with the reference frame? I believe so. How is it at rest then? Do you have motion when you are in a plane? Or do you say y

What is Galilean invariance? You are below deck in a ship moving uniformly on a smooth sea. No experiment can tell you if the ship is docked or if it has motion relative to the see. Assume that the ship is docked. In that case you say that

You may be right about my comment about his positioning of the comma but my statement that all is motion and nothing but motion is not pedantic or trivial.

" But even plain, old, regular mass at rest has energy inherent to it..." This sentence is so typical of sloppy so-called science writing in the US. What is "plain mass?" What is "old mass?" Or maybe he put the

Thanks for this link. I didn’t know who he was. I found his story inspirational. He says some chefs are artists. This may be true but there is a fundamental difference between a chef and a fine artist such as a painter. Chef’s product is us

But in this sense, the length of the diagonal exists but you cannot measure it with your chosen unit which is the side of the square. If you take the diagonal as your unit you cannot measure the side either.
