You have shown that the negative result of the MMX can be explained
by time slowing *or* by length contraction.

Otoh, your ad hominem derogatory comments simply aimed at avoiding
answering my question:

"How can the null result be explained by time "dilation" *and*
by length contraction?".

Clearly, time slowing alone equalizes the light paths, thus preventing
a displacement of the fringes. And time slowing is a proven phenomenon.

Only a SR crackpot could claim that a further alteration of the paths
by length contraction would maintain the MMX null result.

SR crackpots will never recognize that length contraction is the mere
product of Einstein's bogus assumption that light speed is independent
of the motion of the observer.
