The assumption of constant speed of light is part of what can be (and had been tested). The theory leads to predictions and I'm aware of some of those predictions being tested true. I'm not aware of any being tested false (though I'm sure there's plenty we have no answer for). Do you have any examples of a prediction being proven false?
You can't measure speed of light in one direction according to special relativity. You could measure only average of forth and back speeds of light returned by distant mirror. It is unknown, if that speeds are equal.
There are a lot of logical loops in relativity theories.
Do you have any examples of a prediction being proven false?
Gunter Nimtz. In first experiments got 4.7c speed of signal transmission. Later replications, including made by other groups showed that tunneling time seems to be zero ("Our experimental results give a strong indication that there is no real tunneling delay time"), even through 1 meter gap as in Nimtz experiments. Speed of light is not the highest possible speed. There are no any predicted casuality violations observed during transmission of a signal with a speed much higher than speed of light.
If Harold White et.al. finaly create a warp bubble (see Alcubierre drive) in their experiments, that will finally bury relativity theory.

I have an open mind, so I will take the time to check this out. That said, it's still making my nostril hairs shimmy.

And that dude is definitely not in any meaning an opponent of official narrative, nor scientists he interviewed.
