In IIBM-ese that's useally writte as
[3,4] .* (apples equiv. organges) => 3,4,5 Rightous Brothers

All you proved is that you are perceptively blind to infinities, and that
just to begin with. Yes, I suppose to you it would look like "3 apples + 4
oranges."
It seems that in no uncertain terms you told me above that velocity is in
the category of absolute. Whereas I am saying in no uncertain terms that it
is in the category of relative, excepting of course that c = c, 0 = 0 . . .
AND the middling space-per-time [in all four blocks] is both + and -
150,000kps. Which c, 0, and 150,000kps (v), are apples? And which c, 0, and
150,000kps (v), are oranges?
But of course (infinity)]0 and c[(1) certainly are not relative, though
150,000kps (v) is most certainly relative. Maybe that difference is what you
meant by apples and oranges.
---------------------
** I here and now admit to yet another appallingly huge screw up I've been
making over the last months. With the common relationship in use, "An
infinitesimal relatively indistinguishable from zero (0)," I've been
relating 'infinite' to '1', as in, "Infinite relatively indistinguishable
from one (1)," therefore opposing infinite to infinitesimal....when in fact,
I see now, both infinite and infinitesimal are relatively indistinguishable
from zero (0). To mean: 0-dimensional. Each resides in the other, is both
internal and external to the other, and, in their cases, ultimately cancel
each other out to '0'[(infinity), leaving '1', some universal --
cosmological -- 'constant'. Constants that are neither finite nor (infinite
/ infinitesimal), since they will always equal 'Unity' and '1' in any case
whatsoever (G = c = h-bar = k = ? = Unity = 1). But then '1' always stares
into the Abyss that always stares right back at it, '0'[(infinity). Thus the
fundamental Base is not '1' but '2'. In another context, something like,
"Big Brother / Sister state, meet God!" 'Finite' is relative (or "relative
to...."): "having bounds or limits; not too great or too small to be
measurable...subject to limitations or conditions, as of space, time,
circumstances, or the laws of nature: [man's finite existence on earth]"
(or, some people's quite finite- (quite limited-) mindedness ("mental
pygmy"-mindedness), etc.). **

No... I am telling you that the speed of light has no more to do
with the speed of its emitter than the speed of a bow wave has
to do with the motion of a boat.
Partcle models of light have only limited application and
the equation you posted is not one of them.
<<Now, does not the prize to Einstein imply
that the Academy recognised the particle
nature of light? The Nobel Committee says
that Einstein had found that the energy exchange
between matter and ether occurs by atoms emitting
or absorbing a quantum of energy,hv .
As a consequence of the new concept of light quanta
(in modern terminology photons) Einstein proposed the
law that an electron emitted from a substance by
monochromatic light with the frequency has to have
a maximum energy of E=hv-p, where p is the energy needed to
remove the electron from the substance. Robert Andrews
Millikan carried out a series of measurements over a
period of 10 years, finally confirming the validity of this
law in 1916 with great accuracy. Millikan had, however,
found the idea of light quanta to be unfamiliar and strange.
The Nobel Committee avoids committing itself to the
particle concept. Light-quanta or with modern terminology,
photons, were explicitly mentioned in the reports on
which the prize decision rested only in connection with
emission and absorption processes. The Committee says
that the most important application of Einstein's photoelectric
law and also its most convincing confirmation has come from
the use Bohr made of it in his theory of atoms, which explains
a vast amount of spectroscopic data. >>
