Hi NG
 I had recently read a book about GR and found it astonishing, what Einstein and Ehrenfest said about observers on a rotating disk.
 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ehrenfest_paradox
   To me it is selfevident, that observers on a rotating disk would encounter some kind of outwards acceleration, if that disk rotates.

 It was evident then, and it should be evident now,
is that special relativity by itself
is not adequate to deal with the situation.
That's all there is to it,
