The issue is what is the dynamic behind the polar sunrise and 6 months later polar sunset at the same location. The answer is and always will be that as the Earth travels around the Sun those polar points turn parallel to the orbital plane and to the central Sun.
This issue is one a 12 year old child can grasp, and the answer is in every textbook. But for some reason you are unable to understand simple orbital motion, and persist in creating wildly inconsistent views of what is really straightforward:
