But you just said that there is no length contraction. That conflicts
with what you just wrote above.

Nobody cares what anyone predicts. What matters is what actually happens.

All that fails if you have, for example, 4 observers, O, A, B, C. O is
stationary at the origin of a coordinate system. A moves at velocity v
along the x axis. B moves at velocity v along the y axis. C moves at
velocity v along the z axis. All observers measure each other's
velocities.
You can claim that A, B, C are at a higher (or lower) state of absolute
motion than O is. Let's assume that A, B and C are all at a higher state
of absolute motion. So now A, B and C must be at the same state of
absolute motion wrt each other since they all have the same velocity v.
So they all must be stationary relative to each other. But in fact they
all have a velocity of sqrt(2)*v relative to each other! So now A must
have a higher (or lower) absolute motion than B does. This conflicts with
our earlier finding that A, B, C are all the same value of absolute
motion.
You can claim that one of them (for example, C) has a lower value of
absolute motion than O, while A and B are still higher. That still doesn't
change anything, A and B should be equal to each other, yet one of the two
must be higher than the other. Conflict. A can't be greater than B (or
less than B) if A=B. Also the difference between A and C doesn't match
the velocity difference (sqrt(2)*v).
Thus the concept of absolute motion has been proven to be a failure
because of self-contradictions. That's why IRT is a total failure.

As you can see from this post that IRT is a failure has been proven, so is
not bogus.
