Here's another well-known reference where you will find this quote on page 499: "When clocks are synchronized according to the Einstein procedure the equality of the velocity of light in two opposite directions is trivial and cannot be the subject of an experiment." -- R. Mansouri & R.U. Sexl, A test theory of special relativity: I. Simultaneity and clock synchronization, General Relativity and Gravitation, Vol. 8, No. 7 (1977).

You are quoting continously from TEST THEORIES. Do you understand what a TEST theory is? Can you go back to the Zhang book and make sure you understand what Robertson, mansouri and Sexl had in mind? Do you even understand what the above quote from Mansouri and Sexl means?
Either way, this belongs to a different thread, you are making things very muddled for this particular thread. Please open another thread for test theories and we'll discuss.
