If you cant even see that when someone says Morning, Evening, a full day

means a 24 hour day, then I am wasting my time.

You need to ractice reading comprehension.

Read Gen 2:4. It can only be translated as day meaning an indefinite period of time. It refers back to the days of creation. It is thought poetry with the first few verses of Gen 1 (synthetic parallelism).

Any interpretation of yom as a 24 hr day makes the Bible internally inconsistant. This cannot be.
