- Please bear with me I am trying to get a grip with underlying principles.
Starting to try and understand Einstein’s second postulate and distinguish that the speed of light is independent of the speed of the source – v - of objects, other than light with travel initiated independent of the speed of the source.

Much is 'made' that the speed of light is independent of the speed of the source.
But will not a ball “A”, hit by a bat, in any inertial frame, or indeed in any circumstance devoid of interference such as gravity, also travel independently of the speed of the source.
Why thus does the independence of light on source velocity figure so significantly
