To what extent is the PoR an extension of the galilean PoI?
A stated consequence of the Galilean PoI is that inertial observers cannot determine by experiment if they are "in motion" or "at rest", with a similar consequence being mentioned for the PoR - to what extent to these differ, does anyone know?
Does the special PoR extend the Galilean PoI to accelerating reference frames also?
In general, to what extent are the two principles the same and different?
