The passage around this formula
The two pictures are not independent theories that happen to share a symbol. The Galilei phase is the c residue of the Poincaré non-extension, and the residue can be taken explicitly rather than asserted. Write the energy operator for a system at rest as H=M+ , separating the rest energy from whatever nonrelativistic energy — kinetic, internal — sits on top of it. The relativistic loop phase becomes
Learn the underlying idea
A variable is a named place for a value. Its letter is a local label: x can mean position in one formula and a data point in another.
