I recall the terrible deformities of Minkowskian relativity in the face of what Dr. Hachel says, if we take for example the example of Hachel's Tau Ceti traveler (we send a rocket with an acceleration of 10m/s² to Tau Ceti to travel the 12 light years that separate us from the star), we have in Minkowski mode a proper time of about 3.5 years, against 4,776 years in Hachel.

 SR:     τ =  3.304 years
Newton: τ = 11.400 years
Hachel: τ =  4,776 years? Did you mean 4.776 years?

 Yes, in french numerical notation we don't use "." but ","
 In american notation:
 SR:     τ =  3.304 years
 Newton: τ = 11.400 years
 Hachel: τ =  4.776 years
Yes, that's exactly it, and it proves that you have much greater relativistic knowledge than most French or foreign speakers.
So we have three opposing positions, the Newtonians, the Einsteinians, the Hachettes.
We must call things by their name, and it is one of the greatness of science to be able to do it with freedom and knowledge like you.
That's exactly it.
I am happy to be able to read and discuss with a correspondent like you who thinks and who says things clearly.
