From your reply Tom, there's 2 possibilities: 1. You're pride is too high,
that you forgot the origins of Twin Paradox is time dilation (look it up). 2.
or newer concepts for the Twin Paradox shows that the use of time dilation
alone to explain it, is insufficient....


Attempting to argue from exhaustive enumeration nearly always fails, because you
forgot some possibility. Here you forgot the actual reason:


Taking away your mystified proper time, you are totally naked.
shrug

3. When the twin paradox was initially discussed in terms of "time dilation", SR
had not been fully understood, and the terminology used was not really
applicable. We now know better, as I said above.


Nonsense. History is what actually happened and not what you decide
what should have happened to justify your mysticism. After all, did
you not mumble something about not interested in history and better
leaving history for historians to sort it out? Tom, be a gentleman
instead of talking with forked tongue. Gee! shrug

Talking about acceleration shows that I know a tiny bit more then just the
general basic short story on Time dilation.


If you want answers from someone, it's not a good idea to use overly insulting
language. Grow up!


What insult are you talking about? Please note that exposing your
mysticism should not be an insult but a salvation for you. Tom, you
are behaving like a follower of pagan beliefs. Aren’t you a
professor? If so, please start to address the questions raised
instead of weaseling yourself out with lame excuses. Please! [1]
shrug

Note [1]: If you are conveniently forgetting about what the questions
are raised to sharply poking at the center of your zealous beliefs,
they can be repeated for the n’th time for you. Of course, as a
professor, you can continue to play dumb and play aloofness. shrug
