There is also no equation, which could eventually be interpreted as delay calculation.

Delay for a signal from A->B in distance x would be:

Extremely simple, isn't it?

Extremely stupid insteed x=c*t is not generally true. x/c is
not at all the delay your asking for. (AB)/c is such a delay.

So the value 'x' is a coordinate in respect to system K  with distance |x| to system K's center.

Well, yes, this was a little bad, because I had to explain it in the first place, before I could use this setting.

What you "explain" is, again, something you made up out of nothing.

Systems K and k are even defined yet in paragraph 2.

It makes basically no sense to put the center of K at A and the
center of k at B. K and k are in relative motion while clock-A
and clock-B are mutually at rest. So your "setting" is setting
v to 0.

Addendum : "the distance from A to B is x": this is wrong too.
x is the coordinate of an event in system K, it is not, in
general, the distance between origins of K and k.

 'x' is a generic coordinate in system K and means a distance from the center of K to a point on the x-axis.
 Since system k was placed with its center upon the x-axis and B in the center of k, the distance from A to B would actually be x.

Systems k and K are not even mentioned in part I.2. So "system k was
placed with its center upon the x-axis and B in the center of k"
is a figment of your imagination in no way related to A.E. article.

But, of course, your critique is valid and you should not use generic variables for special purposes.
 Therefore I made already the proposal to call the distance from A to B 'd'.

AB, (AB) or \overbar(AB) make the job for every one but you.

BTW: x was not meant as coordinate of an event, because system K and k were defined as Euclidian coordinate systems.

Such a coordinate system does not contain time in any way, hence cannot address events.

k and K are defined as 4-D dimensional systems with coordinates
x, y, z, t and epsilon, nu, eta, tau. BOTH include a time coordinate
so BOTH are representing EVENTS.
"does not contain time in any way" ? How can you be so clueless ??? Or
is it deliberates lies ???
