The calendrical convenience of a 1461 day cycle broken up into 3
years
of 365 days and 1 year of 366 days was and remains a gorgeous human
achievement,so old that the further minor adjustments amounts to 10
days in 1582.As there is an alternate number of days every 4th
year,it
should give you a clue that there are two systems involved,the first
governs the creation of the equable 24 hour day

There is no natural 'equable' 24 hour day.


I am delighted that you agree

So why do YOU talk about the 'equitable 24hd' as though it exists?


You justify the return of a star in 23 hours 56 minutes and 04 secs by
falsely assuming that a location on Earth rotates to the face the
noon Sun in 24 hours exactly -

Oh I see. You completely fail to understand what astronomers think,
therefore you think they are mistaken.
