One can also not know that which is.  Which is the case with you here.

You are arguing out of your ignorance of what has been observed.  Such an 
argument is a fallacy; your reasoning is flawed.

If simple logic is a “dogma”, then I am content with you calling the result 
of its application “dogma”.  You have not the slightest clue what you are 
talking about.

No, about consistency.  If the basic principle of relativity holds, and that 
it holds has been confirmed since Galilei, then all observers must agree on 
the outcome of an experiment.  In this case, the number of atmospheric muons 
that are *measured* (or whose predicted effects are measured – that does not 
make any difference) to reach the surface of Earth.

Read <http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/Relativ/tdil.html>, then 
select “Application in muon decay experiment” further below (you will find a 
picture there, so even you should be able to understand it).
