The fallacy is obvious.  The stay at home twin is moving with respect
to the travelling observer.  Thus the stay at home twin is aging less.

===============================================
And that is the paradox...

"Prominent theoretical physicists were therefore more inclined to reject the
principle of relativity, in spite of the fact that no empirical data had
been found which were contradictory to this principle."

Translation:
  "Look at me, I'm a prominent theoretical dork who argues for
schoolchildren."

"THERE is hardly a simpler law in physics than that according to which light
is propagated in empty space."
(Except the principle of relativity, an axiom.)

Every child at school knows, or believes he knows, that this propagation
takes place in straight lines with a velocity c = 300,000 km./sec.

Except that children do not know this, they are taught to believe it along
with Santa Claus.

Einstein's crap is nothing but persuasive rhetoric...

[As I said, either the whole physics community is stupid not to see
this, or there is an undercurrent of suppression.

So they are stupid...

Preposterous?  During the time of Galileo, the Ptolemaic system was
propped up.  While most priests may have been stupid, there are
probably some who preferred the Ptolemaic system for its
GEOcentricity, whatever science may say.  Currently there may be not a
few who prefer SR/GR whatever purp[ose it may serve their faith.]
