Default The proportion of 1461 rotations to 4 orbital circuits

I understand all too well how a single mistake governed astronomy so much for the last number of centuries but no longer hold anyone responsible whether this generation or any other. The inevitable conclusion of RA/Dec reckoning is that there are more rotations than 24 hour days by inserting split references to the Sun and stars as opposed to a single graceful combination of day/night.

The reference of the circle of illumination and sunrise/sunset as the Sun comes into view at dawn and disappears from sight before twilight is the bedrock on which a Sun centered system is founded. Not unsurprisingly, it must take an inhuman effort to introduce an artificial perspective meant to justify circumpolar motion at night as the benchmark for rotation and its attempt to bypass the day/night cycle in terms of rotational cause and effect.
