The area of geology needs a huge overhaul

Yo, sci.geo.geology! Crackpot incoming!

You are fine, just another one in a long line who eventually descend into stock phrases so no shame there.

I am sure many people have already realized that it is impossible to explain a sunrise without a rotation behind it and as there are two day/night cycles present with special attention given to the sunrise at the South pole on the Equinox and only on the Equinox,they should enjoy applying lessons learned from the Sun coming into view each morning and then transplanting it to the polar latitude as a separate rotation-

Likewise how to explain the spherical deviation of the planet and plate tectonics simultaneously using a common mechanism even if it is speculative whereas the explanation for dual day/night cycles using dual surface rotations is not. The most likely mechanism is one already observed in the form of an uneven rotational gradient across latitudes known as differential rotation however there is simply a lack of reasonable astronomers who can point out that all rotating celestial objects with viscous compositions display this trait. No need to exempt the Earth's fluid interior from this feature as it answers more than a few major clues in terms of the shape of the Earth and its impact on the surface crust.
