Richard, Richard, Richard!  If tAB <> tBA, your method won't
work  Breath, blow, and THINK!  Given
A ___________ M ___________ B
If tAB <> tBA, then tAM <> tMB and A and B won't be synchronized.
If, OTOH tMA = tMB, then tAB = tBA.

The universal present does not exist!!!

I see no justification for your insistence on this canard.  Your
protestation that the GPS isn't "real" synchronization has no
factual basis.

Owww!

"Your stupid present tense doesn't exist." I will never understand
this blockage for a concept that I thought was understandable for
an eleven-year-old child, and which seems to block everyone.

Even a child knows that the present tense can exist elsewhere.
Even Wozniak and the GPS agree that "t' = t."  It's not stupid,
but even if it were stupid but it works, it's not stupid.  It's
real.
