I mean, technically, a day passing doesn’t explicitly need the sun as it is a measure of the rotational speed of the Earth (ie time), not the position of the sun in the sky. The latter was/is simply used to measure the former.
That’s not really a fair/honest argument when the concept of a day existed long before humans knew the earth was rotating. Originally, a day was defined as the rising and setting of the sun

I’m not really arguing anything, just pointing it out.
I know. I saw it as a funny akshually moment. I used argument, for lack of a better word
Without a reference frame, there would be no way to tell when one rotation had been completed.
What if you were omniscient?
then wtf were you doing wasting your time on this bullshit.
