There is also no equation, which could eventually be interpreted as delay calculation.

Extremely simple, isn't it?

Extremely stupid insteed x=c*t is not generally true. x/c is
not at all the delay your asking for. (AB)/c is such a delay.

So the value 'x' is a coordinate in respect to system K  with distance |x| to system K's center.

Well, yes, this was a little bad, because I had to explain it in the first place, before I could use this setting.

It makes basically no sense to put the center of K at A and the
center of k at B. K and k are in relative motion while clock-A
and clock-B are mutually at rest. So your "setting" is setting
v to 0.

  What???
 A coordinate system can actually be placed anywhere.

Certainly. But putting K/k origins at positions A/B (as they are
defined in part I.2) would lead to v=0 because A and B are mutually
at rest clocks.

Here we have a point 'A' and an observer (also called 'A') and a coordinates system called 'K'.
 The best and most natural setting would be, that you place the coordinate system with its center at 'A' and also the observer in K there.
 Since the coordinate system k is equivalent in function and settings, we should place 'B' in the center of k.
 This is simply the best way to place all the items mentioned into a useful order.
 If you (or Einstein) like something else, this would be allowed, but you had to say so.

He didn't say that both clocks are made of Swiss cheese. If Einstein
likes something else, this would be allowed, but he had to say so.
So the article is about clocks made of Swiss cheese.
You are pathetically absurd Thomas.
