Numbers like t_B or t'_A cannot be "simultaneous". Events

this signal" can be.

No.
According to Einstein-Poincaré definition of simultaneity
they are not simultaneous.
However you like or not this *definition* this is something
you CANNOT deny.
A definition cannot be false. It is either consistent or
not.
E-P's one can be proven so. Yours can be proven inconsistent
(even *you* actually proved that it is inconsistent).
