<div>Yes, Hodge, pendulum clock and atomic clocks are fundamentally different - first one is a "slave" to the local gravitational field and the second one is a "slave" to the quantum transition and Doppler effect. These are totally different physical processes.
This is why the "Twin Paradox" does not have universal single physical process supporting its basic premise.</div>
