When the year is longer than the day... that is effectively NO rotation.

Especially for the purposes of determining climate.

With the Earths 24 hour rotation, we have 12 hours of cooling after every 12 hours of heating.

Venus has over 5,800 hours of heating on a spot.

Yet surface temps on the sun-facing side are apparently about the same as the far side.
