Is velocity the reason for the time dilation effect?

He describes in his scenario the differential aging as a two-way time dilation. Logically, the resulting age difference must be the sum...

No, she doesn't (see below). Rindler didn't distinguish between "Time dilation" and "real time dilation". He wrote that time dilation...

In this case it's magnitude depends on a convention, but not it's existence at certain velocities.

Yes. But Rindler uses the twin paradox as argument, that time dilation in general is no accident of convention.

The adjective "real" can also have the meaning, that time dilation is no accident of convention. Source...

The twin paradox with muons was experimentally verified by Bailey et al. (1977) in a storage ring. It is a real effect. The distinction...
