It has been shown that the assumption of a specified cosmological substratum leads to the Lorentz-equivalencc of observers whose uniform motion in the substratum lies along a common straight line. The result is generalised for any pair of unaccelerated observers thus confirming that only the relative velocity of such observers is relevant in relating their observations of an event.
