A coordinate transform is:
t' = at + bx
x' = ct + dx

Do you think that the term "b" has another EXPLANATION,
EITHER WITH A PHYSICAL MEANING OR EVEN A METAPHYSICAL ONE,
than the terms a, c and d?

Quite.
I have bought SR and the Lorentz transform with all its terms
because I know that SR is thoroughly experimentally verified.

I also know that Newtonian mechanics and the Galilean transform
without the term -vx/c² is experimentally falsified.

Do you need another 'explanation' for why the term  -vx/c²
must be in the transformation which give the predictions that
are in accordance with physical measurements in the real world?

There is no "local time" in SR.

You can see what Lorentz meant by "local time" in chapter 3 here:

https://paulba.no/div/LTorigin.pdf

Quote:
"Lorentz called the t' coordinate ’local time’, as opposed to
  the t coordinate which was the ’absolute time’ inherited from Newton.
  But note that this ’local time’ is what it shown by local clocks,
  and it is the ’local time’ that can be measured.
  The ’absolute time’ t is unobservable."

Only an idiot would call a term in a coordinate transform "local time".
What is the term vt? "Local position"?

And only an idiot would claim that all physicists born after 1900
are frauds.

Don't you agree, Richard? :-D
