Reinterpreted by the speaker as not disproving the ether, but rather showing interference patterns consistent with ether displacement by gravity when oriented vertically.

Ether as Spacetime Medium
The vacuum is not empty but filled with a physical medium (ether/ZPE) that has properties of permittivity and permeability, dictating the speed of light.
Michelson-Morley Reinterpretation via Gravity
The Michelson-Morley experiment does not disprove the ether; when oriented vertically, it shows interference patterns consistent with ether displacement by gravity.
