Err,

The explanation has TWO pointsm, not one:

1. From the POV of the lab
2. From the POV of an observer moving wrt the lab. This explanation needs:

2.1. TD and LC for KTX 
2.2. In the case of MMX it needs LC (in the frame of the moving observer) and LC+TD (in order to transform the result back into the frame of the lab).
