The principle of relativity includes variance of length of material 
objects (length contraction) and time intervals (time dilation).

To call this a 'postulate of invariance' is a little twisted.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_relativity

Quote

"The principle of relativity, according to which the laws of physical 
phenomena should be the same, whether for an observer fixed, or for an 
observer carried along in a uniform movement of translation; so that we 
have not and could not have any means of discerning whether or not we 
are carried along in such a motion.
— Henri Poincaré, 1904"

So the laws of nature do not change (are invariant).

Since some parts of nature do in fact change (e.g. length of material 
objects) it is the question, which laws are not subject to a change of 
velocity in uniform motion.

Especially the 'speed of time' seems to be variable. This is not 
measurable, hence get 'normalised' away.

In a spacetime diagram the axis of time is put into vertical and the 
hyperplane of the present in horizontal direction - irrespective of 
'real' movement.

This is actually possible, but makes time a local unit and linked to the 
co-moving hyperplane of the present.

So time is 'movement with no space' and present means 'movement with no 
time'.

What we call 'space' is therefore 'relative', too, since it is a 
combination of both 'movements' in space and time (the past light cone).

So with every possible axis of time we also have an associated 
'universe', but only one in every single case.

What is not an invariant upon such changes of the length of time 
intervals, that is the content of such a 'universe' - whether they are 
material or not.

So one ray of light is a ray of light only in respect to the universe it 
passes through. Also material objects would vanish if time is altered.

So we have variance of items, which we usually regard as invariant.
