簡而言之吧，你這裡提出的客觀性方面的擔心，名譽損失方面的擔心，有些牽強。上面的那段文字也不是在說愛因斯坦有抄襲，說是有借鑑恐怕更恰當，這點愛因斯坦從來不否認的，科學研究本開就是站在前人的肩上。

你引述的那段文字，有沒有輕看愛因斯坦在相對論上的工作的潛在詞，要看上下文。

其實，相對論發表後，洛侖茲跟愛因斯坦有20多年的交往，來往書信達90封之多。很難想象，如果看不起對方的研究，看那不起對方的人品，雙方還會有這麼頻繁的交流。也很難想象，如果他們之間有學術上的齷齪，洛侖茲本人，或者其家屬會請愛因斯坦在洛侖茲喪禮上致悼詞。

愛因斯坦本人對洛侖茲是相當敬重的，這可以從愛因斯坦去世前的一段採訪看出來：

Shortly before his death, Albert Einstein was asked, Who were the greatest ,men, the most powerful thinkers whom he had known, Einstein answered without hesitation, “Lorentz.”   Einstien’s near idolatry for Lorentz had lasted all his life; and a few weeks before Einstien’s death, Einstein described what the magnetism was, “Everything that emanated from his supremely great mind was as clear and beautiful as a good work of art.  There was his humor, his smile, his mastery of physics and mathematics.” 

Einstein went on, “Lorentz was perfectly aware that the human intellect cannot penetrate very deeply into the essential core of things.  It was not until my later years that I was able fully to appreciate this half-sceptical, half-humble disposition.”

順便說一句：從分析洛侖茲，愛因斯坦書信着手，到也不失為一條了解愛因斯相對論坦究竟有多少原創的途徑。
