There is much that is misunderstood in science. That is why the scientific method succeeds, because it is simply a way of asking questions that makes getting answers possible.
Sadly, postulating that electrons don't slow because they are powered by zero-point energy is untrue, and this has been shown by experiment.
Bose-Einstein condensates, the Hall Effect, and even basic chemistry, prove that electrons do in fact follow the Second Law of Thermodynamics. I urge you to either gain nominal understanding of the science you discuss, or to accept you do not, and state your remarks accordingly.
While no scientist worthy of the name will state the Aether does not exist, if only because a negative cannot be proven, I know of none that claim it does. The Aether, zero-point energy, and psychic phenomena are hallmarks of pseudoscience, and incessantly used to baffle with BS those unable to understand actual physics.
Such extraordinary claims, contravening not just some esoteric formula but the entire body of scientific research that has ever been published and is the basis for every functioning technology more advanced than fire and pointy sticks, require equally extraordinary evidence to be considered reliable.
Absent any evidence at all, which is what you have provided, I will remain unconvinced of your thesis.
