The physical phenomena seen by an observer are defined for a local inertial system that is subjective to the observer. Such a coordinate system is called a ``moving frame'' because it changes from time to time. However, unlike the Thomas precession, the Unruh-DeWitt detector has been discussed for a fixed frame. We discuss the Unruh-DeWitt detector by defining the vacuum for the moving frame, showing that the problem of the Stokes phenomenon can be solved by using the vierbeins and the exact WKB, to find factor 2 discrepancy from the standard result. Differential geometry is constructed in such a way that local calculations can be performed rigorously. If one expects Markov property, the calculation is expected to be local. The final piece that was missing was a local non-perturbative calculation, which is now complemented by the exact WKB. Our analysis defines a serious problem regarding the relationship between entanglement of the Unruh effect and differential geometry.

    The author claims that a local differential-geometry and exact-WKB treatment of the Unruh effect yields no distant-wedge entanglement, contradicting the standard global calculation.
