As I understand it, Einstein's dismissal of the "luminiferous aether" was based on his discovery that there is no universal frame of reference, i.e. that no frame of reference is privileged in relation to all other frames. My question is whether this principle can also be stated in the inverse, namely that all frames of reference are privileged in relation to events that take place within themselves.
(1) No frame of reference is privileged in relation to all other frames.
(2) All frames of reference are privileged in relation to themselves.
Is (1) ⇔ (2)?
