It isn't comparing apples and oranges, it is merely about getting to the source of the 2.1° (which is apparently a byproduct of thinking that there is no difference between rotating and being orbited)

It terms of the angular velocity between you and the reference point, there doesn't seem to be.

Thats why you use an absolute reference point to measure angular velocity against ;-)
