http://www.pitt.edu/~jdnorton/papers/Einstein1905.pdf Albert Einstein: "I certainly knew that the principle of the constancy of the velocity of light is something quite independent of the relativity postulate; and I considered what would be more probable, the principle of the constancy of c, as was demanded by Maxwell’s equations, or the constancy of c, exclusively for an observer sitting at the light source. I decided in favor of the first..." Einstein is simply lying: Maxwell's equations presupposed that the speed of light was VARIABLE and obeyed the equation c'=c+v, where c is the speed of light relative to the ether and v is the speed of the observer relative to the ether. So the only reasonable choice consistent with the Michelson-Morley experiment was "the constancy of c, exclusively for an observer sitting at the light source", that is, the prediction of Newton's emission theory of light.
