A number has a specific meaning. It describes how many are in a group.
I will concede however that these days, we are often asked to rate
something on a scale, such as '0 to 10'. That is really a misuse of
number because it is not specific enough. Numbers have exact values.

Anyway, this nonsense has gone on long enough. You are just trying to
waste my time.
I repeat, "if two things are identical in one frame, they are identical
in all frames. Sameness is not frame dependent...and that fact brings
down Einstein RoS.
