 Yes, of course. Good point. Similarly, any result that depends on choice of coordinates is unphysical.
 

Not quite...
Because velocity is 'relative' (relative in respect to what you regard as 'stationary'), kinetic energy is frame dependent.
Since the used coordinate system defines 'stationary', you need a coordinate system for kinetic energy and that for practically everything else.
