A better view of direct/retrogrades for Mercury/Venus
I have often been surprised at how quickly people adopt the insights but like any summit to climb, it is how people get there rather than just being able to take in the view.
It shows in the previous video commentary from a few days ago when they put the Sun at the centre of Venus motions, correctly identify how it moves against the stars up to a point but misses out on the motion of the stars from left to right of the Sun due to the orbital motion of the Earth.
The same happened with differential rotation of the fluid interior across latitudes for the purpose of geological evolution in tandem with the explanation for the spherical deviation across latitudes.
Astronomical composition allied with cause and effect or just the sheer joy of recognising motions and structures can be hard won so that even seeing people try to give less than correct perspectives makes me smile.
