Nope. Actually "c" (the speed of light) is a defined constant. Everything else adjusts to that constant.

Yes, but the observed speed of light is variable, is it not? When that experiment was done a couple hundred years ago, the constant was not known. Therefore, my objections would stand, right?

We're talking experiments, not constants.
