You are confusing clocks and time.

You are confusing clocks and time.

There are some old expressions: "you can lead a
horse to water, but you can't make it drink" and
"those that don't understand history are
condemned to repeat it".

Three nodes, three leads stretched tight. Now very move
one node at non-relativistic speeds so that only one
(perfectly elastic) lead changes length. Should the PLL
change phase?

[I should have been more explicit about one node
moving - apologies]
