I mean, "Yes, muons have mass, and their mass is approximately 207
times
that of an electron, with a value of about 105.7 MeV/c², according to
Britannica [10, 17] and other sources [1, 3, 6, 7]." -Google AI
So they must move faster in the atmosphere.

So since the mass of a  muon is 207 times the mass of an electron
it must fall 207 times faster than an electron? :-D

The inverse of frequency and wavelength with regards to waves or
the particles moving along as those are and calling that all
"electromagnetic radiation" is one of the great conflations
since the kinetic and nuclear and electromagnetic radiation
in both the long and short waves and the special optical light
and the three constants "c" about the light's and the electromagnetic
and electrostatics', and about waves whether it's velocity,
help illustrate that according to that kind of conflation,
muons don't so much belong to SR, nor make much sense from
the conflated and ignorant SR-ianism.

Not so much that's their fault, as, doesn't belong to them.

Then, if it is not SR time dilation due to high speeds, it could be GR
time dilation due to gravity without gravity increasing the speed but
just causing time dilation. The only problem is that time dilation is ad
hoc fiction divorced from rational physics.

No it's not, space-contraction the FitzGeraldian is about the
most usual sort of thing when you consider anything starting
and stopping.
Also the usual gravitational equivalence principle, same
as with regards to gravity's force and acceleration otherwise
with usually the reaction mass and variously the solar sail
or laser or various ideas of Jefimenko, Alcubierre and such,
relativistic nanogyroscope array, anyways the usual gravitational
equivalence principle can be considered kind of a two-way
cancellation.
That sometimes wavelength really reflects the velocity
vis-a-vis the bounds, gets into various reasons why optical
light is special vis-a-vis plasmas, rays, and the radio.
("Wavelength-frequency" instead of, "electro-magnetic",
specifically, radiation, per se.)
