Well, actually SRT is about a special case, where no gravity exists.

This is not a particularly likely scenario, but somehow possible as 
simplification.

He didn't consider the effects of acceleration in a paragrapg about 
movement from point A back to point A, where he assumed, this would also 
be possible along any polygonal line.


But in SRT we have also another restriction: v was defined as constant 
velocity.

And constant velocity along 'any polygonal line' is impossible, because 
that would cause infinite acceleration.
