“Why don't you show where the 2.1 degrees comes from if the Sun is orbiting the Earth? Which you agreed is the case. ”

Why don't i do a geocentric model?

Well, because right now we're doing a stationary binary model with a single body rotation.

Remember this?

Do you thin that, If the Sun and Earth were perfectly motionless in space, except the Earth was rotating 360° every 24 hours, would (at high noon, sans the atmosphere) the optical image of the Sun be lagged 2.1° behind its gravitational pull?

Yes, up to 2.1 degrees.

You have ascribed geocentric attributes to a non-centric model.

You have claimed to have knowledge of the math and geometry invovled.

Perhaps its time you demonstrated it.

How do you account for the 2.1° in the non-centric model that you addressed in 1514?

No, you are the one that said that you didn't know how to model the two stationary bodies with one rotating. However you did say that if the Sun were orbiting the Earth then it would have a 2.1 degree lag. Show that.

You will find there is no difference in the two models : )
