Default Dance of the Blessed Spirits in Einstein's Schizophrenic World

LIGO's "detection" of gravitational waves is hopefully the final swindle made by the Einstein cult (most Einsteinians are silently leaving Einstein's sinking ship nowadays).

"On 8:41 am EDT August 17, 2017, LIGO detected a new gravitational wave source, dubbed GW170817 to mark its discovery date. Just two seconds later NASA's Fermi satellite detected a weak pulse of gamma rays from the same location of the sky." https://www.cfa.harvard.edu/news/2017-30

"Just two seconds later" and "the same location of the sky" implies that gravitational waves and optical signals traveled along the same gravitationally deflected path, with the same speed and experiencing the same Shapiro delay. Realistic or absurd?

There is a great, breathtaking discovery in the above implication:

Gravitational waves and optical signals undergo exactly the same gravitational deflection.

An immediate second Nobel Prize but... LIGO fakers are silent and would never again say anything like "just two seconds later" and "the same location of the sky":

"But one of LIGO's twin detectors was offline Thursday when the gravitational wave reached Earth, making it hard for astronomers to triangulate exactly where the signal was coming from. That sent astronomers racing to image as many galaxies as they could across a region covering one-quarter of the sky." http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/d-...n-star-merger/

"In this case, unlike many others, LIGO and Virgo were unable to significantly narrow down the direction in the sky that the waves came from. The researchers could say only that the waves were from a wide region that covers roughly one-quarter of the sky." https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-019-01377-2

"You might wonder why we haven't seen knockout detections of electromagnetic radiation accompanying gravitational waves since the August 2017 discovery. Unfortunately, we probably just got lucky that time. “It was nearby, well-localized in space, and had everything going for it,” Berger said." https://gizmodo.com/mystery-deepens-...ace-1837581646

"The first such observation, which took place in August of 2017, made history for being the first time that both gravitational waves and light were detected from the same cosmic event. The April 25 merger, by contrast, did not result in any light being detected." https://phys.org/news/2020-01-ligo-v...tron-star.html
