No. This sentence displays the confusion perfectly.
Take a sphere with its spherical metric. Its geodesics are great circles.
Nobody obtains spherical geometry by first taking Euclidean circles and
then CALLING them straight lines.
The metric determines the geodesics.
And "great circle" and "straight line" aren't even contradictory here:
the first describes the set as embedded in Euclidean 3-space; the second,
if used, describes its intrinsic geodesic role on the surface.
An ant constrained to the sphere and following a geodesic does not turn
left or right within its surface merely because YOU, looking from R^3,
see a circle.
So after several rounds we have finally located the problem:
extrinsic Euclidean shape = circle
intrinsic geodesic = "straight"
You see two descriptions and think mathematicians renamed one into the
other.
They didn't.
And then you repeat exactly the same category error with clocks.
Even better, after being given references, your response was literally
that you didn't read them.
This is no longer a disagreement about advanced mathematics.
It's a refusal to learn the elementary mathematics required for your
own analogy.
