Default EINSTEIN 1918 CONTRADICTS EINSTEIN 1905

Consider stationary ants spread out in the rectangular line:

If a single ant is travelling along the rectangular line, consecutively meeting its stationary brothers, this is the original twin-paradox scenario. The travelling ant is the travelling twin which, according to Einstein's relativity, is gradually getting younger than its stationary brothers. In other words, the difference in age between the stationary ant/twin just being met and the single travelling ant/twin increases with the number of meetings..

If the single ant/twin is stationary, located in the middle of one of the sides of the rectangle, and if the other ants/twins are travelling along the rectangular line, the scenario becomes dangerous. In this case Einstein's relativity predicts that the single stationary ant/twin is gradually getting younger than the travelling ants/twins. That is, the difference in age between the travelling ant/twin just being met and the single stationary ant/twin increases with the number of meetings.

Clearly Einstein's relativity is an inconsistency - it predicts that stationary twins are getting both older and younger than travelling twins.
