Okay, sorry to keep coming at this, but when you say light takes time to travel, are you then stepping outside of any FOR? Because if the photon leaving it’s source is simultaneous with the photon arriving in our FOR, that implies no travel time in our frame, yes?

It’s not my conclusion, it’s (to me) the natural implication of saying that in my frame of reference, the event happened the moment the information arrived, and that’s why I was questioning it. Because there were still, from my POV 700 years travel time, no?

So, having established all that, can’t we just say it happened 700 years ago, then?
