When and where did I offer to define this, as you say, relative

I address your physics ability in addition to our making small talk.

It's not a hypothesis, it's a simple matter of fact statement

But there is a super special secret train, traveling at relativistic
speeds, between DC and India. We try not to advertise it too well. It
was funded by, you guessed it, your tax money.
