##\vec{L} = \vec{r} \times \vec{p}## does imply the relationship between the directions of ##\vec{L}## and ##\vec{\omega}##. So the...

Yes, but ##\vec L = \vec r \times \vec p## does not imply that angular momentum is parallel to angular velocity so the latter cannot be...

But even in those cases the direction of ##\vec{\omega}## relative to the direction of ##\vec{L}## is a consequence of the definition...

Note these are consequences of the definition of angular momentum: ##\vec{L}=\vec{r} \times \vec{p}##.

That's a common misuse of the terminology. We refer to a rest frame as a frame of reference in which something is at rest. So the...

By spindle "changing" you mean ##\vec{\omega}## of the rotating object changing direction? Then, yes.

That follows from the definition of angular momentum. He states "torque due to gravity". So you don't see that a torque by definition...

What do you mean by enter a reference frame? What are you trying to learn?

The thing is, without data to support that conclusion we have, well, no data to support it!

Yes, I think the double hole case is a good follow up question to ask after explaining the single hole case, in order to check if the...

That's because you already have or others have done so for you. My point is that conclusions like that cannot be arrived at by reasoning...

There is no single reason that would be valid for everyone. You would need to design a question that would probe that issue. You would...

My point is, they are a distraction. Doesn't matter how deep they are. The distance ##x## will increase. Put two marks on the disk and...

Every one-dimensional measurement increases by the same ratio. Put two marks anywhere on the disk and the distance between them will...

When I'm doing spacetime calculations I'm using the same math used by block universe proponents, but I'm not thinking of the future as...
