Sigh...SR is a subset of IRT because it only predict
that an observed clock is running slow. In real life
an observed clock can run slow or fast compared to
the observer's clock.
What SR said is irrelevant.

What SR said is irrelevant. What SR predicts is incomplete and IRT
includes SRT predictions and with additional predictions to make
it agree with all observations. That's why SRT is a subset of IRT.
