If confirmed, this would imply special relativity is an approximation to a more general theory, but since the relevant comparison would ( by definition ) be outside the observable universe, it is difficult to imagine ( much less construct ) experiments to test this hypothesis.

If this sounds indulgent, it allows simultaneity, absolute space and time and a deterministic universe ( along with decoherence theory ) whilst the status-quo permits time travel / causality paradoxes, subjectivity in the measurement process and multiple universes.

In arithmetic and number theory, the least common multiple ( also called the lowest common multiple or smallest common multiple ) of two integers a and b, usually denoted by LCM ( a, b ), is the smallest positive integer that is divisible by both a and b. If either a or b is 0, LCM ( a, b ) is defined to be zero.

If there were such a number then the theory would be inconsistent, contrary to the consistency hypothesis.

If the circumstances are faced frankly it is not reasonable to expect this to be true.
