The paper “Reinterpretation of the Michelson-Morley experiment and its consequences for cosmology” by Vaclav Vavryčuk claims that the Lorentz transformation’s physical interpretation is flawed and advocates for a “Doppler metric” instead of the standard Minkowski metric as a better description of spacetime distortion, an idea that contradicts the well-established foundation of Einstein’s Special Relativity and is not supported by mainstream physics.
