&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;quot;Special Relativity Is Irksome&amp;quot;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is an article by [[Harry Hamlin Ricker]] published on 29 July 2019 on &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Beyond Mainstream&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, proposing a criterion for assessing a theory&amp;#039;s scientific value.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ricker defines an irksome theory as one whose individual demonstrations each make sense while the theory as a whole does not &amp;amp;mdash; a theory whose paradoxes and anomalies refuse to be tamed and whose concepts cannot be defined in terms everyone agrees on. He offers special relativity as his principal example, arguing that the criterion sidesteps the less productive arguments the subject usually generates.&lt;br /&gt;
