Did you even look at the second word of the name of the theory?
Special RELATIVITY? It is all about how inertial frames are all relative
to each other and how there is no special absolute references.

Now I remember that you like to give your own made-up definitions to
existing terms in physics and then argue with people using the standard
definition because the standard definition conflicts with your made-up
definition.  Perhaps this is what you did here, you made up your own
definition of "inertial frame", one that no scientist would ever use.
It appears to me that you don't know the definition of "inertial frame",
but that may be because you are using your own definition of "inertial 
frame".

Anyway, an inertial frame (standard definition) LOOKS non-inertial, when 
viewed from a non-inertial frame (standard definition).

What Ken's definition of "inertial frame" is, nobody other than Ken
knows. And I doubt he really does know.

Nope. I just created another inertial frame! Right here on earth!! Whoops, 
there it goes!!!

Wait, Ken Seto is talking about Ken Seto's definition of "inertial frame".
Who knows what that is, other than apparently it's something that can't
exist on earth. Meanwhile, I can sit here and create inertial frames
(science's definition not Ken's definition) all day long.
