Actually, of course, they orbit around their common

It is very BIG.

It means I don't need anywhere near as much extinction to explain the distance
anomaly. Orbit pitch can also be included in the equation.


What's this, Wilson?
How can you get pitch from a point source, Wilson?
All orbits are edge-on, Wilson, you said so.
In fact you don't need ANY extinction, it is ALL explained by pitch,
you stupid old wabo.
