I am working through Einstein's "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies", and I can't figure out why we are using c instead of a random constant velocity. It seems to me that c is an arbitrary value for the argument. I'm sure there is an explanation... I just can't think of it. Can anyone clear up my confusion?
Oh, in case you want to review the paper:
