I love your signature and your site, Analog.

Like they say, "It takes two to tango." and to find absolute rest we have to divide the two relative frames by two to give us one absolute frame. For instance, the two poles of the earth have to be flipped so that the two opposing persepctives - North-South counter-clockwise and South-North clockwise - meet and negate motion.

Because all frames are n-1, the one absolute frame is the equivalent of a zero-dimensional point. In other words, the one frame equals none; absolutes, that are repeatedly proclaimed, cannot exist, inclusive of absolute motion.
