There is very little more I can say other than recycle the whole thing
and you can take comfort that the big institutions share your reasoning
and the same ability to ignore that they choose the wrong value for
axial rotation,either way,as individuals or representative of
cataloguers (NASA,ROG,ect) it is either stupidity or misconduct,no
offense but you display the former.

So,the pre-Copernican equable 24 hour day translates into independent
axial rotation within a Copernican/Keplerian heliocentric framework
using the Equation of Time correction,any other choice(s) is just plain
silly.

It has never happened in the history of humanity that such an error was
allowed to fester and ultimately break out into this horrendous dodging
that I really have no interest in.The geologists are likely to break
first from the sham that originated with Newton for differential
rotation in the mantle generates the Equatorial bulge and subsequently
will replace convections cells as a mechanism for tectonic motion (I am
rightly proud of my insight) thereby linking astronomy with geology for
the first time.

As a teacher I have no need to ask questions but anything that you find
curious please ask and I will help you figure it out.
