well, people could well have thought it was right but they still would have needed the evidence to be sure. otherwise we wouldn't still be doing experiments to test relativity. and as we all know nothing is proved in science.

Actually the gist of my opening post....Einstein was 100% confident in SR/GR and even in the face of opposition from one of his teaching professors [Weber], brushed the criticism off with daring confidence.

The real evidence of course was observed with particle accelerators and the extended life spans on Muons etc [time dilation] as well as length contraction
