The passage around this formula
the proper spatial separation within between the two charts’ answers, normalized by the spin-to-mass length fixed in the first section. is dimensionless by construction, symmetric, zero exactly when the two charts coincide, and it has now been checked, not merely asserted, in both directions this kind of construction is required to pass: it vanishes as v/c 0 for any spin, and it vanishes as S 0 for any observer…
