Case 1: Stationary, non-rotating reference frame fixed to the Earth (your geocentric model).

Sorry, the reference frame rotates instead of the earth.

Sorry, a rotating reference frame is NOT an inertial reference frame. I take it you didn't bother reading my post, which is unsurprising as you didn't bother reading the sources you quoted either.

So does the Earth rotate along with your rotating reference frame? In other words, is the Earth fixed to your rotating reference frame? Or is it fixed to a non-rotating reference frame?

Careful how you answer. Think about the consequences to your argument. . .
