If you weren't trying to reconcile velocity and acceleration, with my definition of "dimension", then what were you doing by saying:
?

Don’t try and squirm out of this by putting words in my mouth. I didn’t say velocity and acceleration are dimensions, did I?
The have magnitude and direction, but they don't describe the position of an object.
Again, I didn’t say that either. You’re digging yourself deeper and deeper.
And they don't warp due to the presence of matter (as Relativity dictates about spatial and temporal dimensions).
Bravo! You managed to have completely twisted my response out of proportion to suit your needs, yet have failed miserably because you really have no idea what you’re talking about.
Magnitude is not one of the physical dimensions, because it is not used to describe position or movement.
Ah, the youth – forever ignorant in their defiance.
Velocity and acceleration are vectors; therefore they both have magnitude and direction.
