Now, as for staticity, I'd love to delve into your logic on this a bit, but I'm not sure if I'll see it as you. It may take some work. The only staticity that I can concieve as a motion materialist is a block universe from a scientific perspective or eternalism from a philosophical perspective, whereby the universe is a 4D extension. From a materialist perspective this is easy to imagine due to only having to deal with the temporal extension of matter itself in terms of density changes. These changes would take place in quantum steps or quantities of substance conserving mass in the temporal direction by relative changes of the other three spatially extended dimensions, and due to my belief of precision, each temporal progression would exhibit an homogenous and isotropic motion mechanics throughout the whole in all four dimensions. If such a block universe had an infinite temporal extension which exhibited the precision expansion and contraction cycling dynamics of the whole as discussed by Lloyd and myself, then we honestly couldn't distinguish whether we are part of such a system or not, due to any measurement we take in any direction and at any location displaying nothing more than the conserved symmetry of motion throughout time and space.
As for rotation and magnetism, we must also keep in mind that there is also another axis of motion, which is linear. If we acknowledge the FS as merely density mechanics, then to delve into such topics at the absolute scale, simply requires us to merely imagine the dynamics of substance moving through substance. Imagine a spherical piece of ice moving through a swimming pool as it rotated and linearly propagated perpendicular to the axis of this rotation. now imagine that every motion undergone is either caused by the motions of the pool or is an intrinsic property internal to the ice whereby the pool must react to these motions. Either way, the surrounding water must interact in relation to these motions whereby having density changes in areas along with a flow of substance around the ice to fill all voids. There's also an aspect of water flowing into the structure of the ice and outward back to the collective value of the pool, depending upon the imposed conditions and such. Now imagine that this is all taking place at extreme velocities within the very substance whose motions and density changes are the origin of charge, gravity and such, due to the fact that there's nothing else to constitute such cause matter and motion is all that we have to work with. The motions of the FS with and within itself present all the dynamics required to explain any and all observed phenomenon IMHO, if we merely take into account the effects of all these ice spheres interacting with each other within this universal swimming pool, and these interactions effecting density changes and such which allow for seperation itself between the ice spheres. We live in a very dynamic universe, and within the model we often discuss here, if we could explain all the observed phenomena such as the four 'forces' without taking into consideration all of the dynamics of such a unique substance, then we would either be using the wrong paradigm, or we have more 'forces' to acknowledge. All the pieces should fit in the end.
I would actually be more concerned and confused if we ever find a bunch of cube shape planets orbiting a cube shaped star with no rotation in various orbital planes. If you really think about it, geometry itself is an indication of the direction of energy in terms of motion entropy at the absolute scale. Spherical planets and stars with disc shaped orbits says alot about the flow of substance into and outward from structured matter and the balance of motions forces relative to all structured matter interacting at distances if you really consider it, IMHO, but this is merely my personal conjecture.
