Menow, you do have a way of mincing words and comments.

She knows it "goes round"; most people think of that as an orbit. She didn't understand -- if I recall correctly from the day you went at her -- about the 27.3 day actual progression, true orbit. I got that impression. You were taunting her for that, if I recall.

Nor, like most people, does she actually image it from the next layer of understanding, where rotation along a sine wave, not revolution, is knowable in the Moon's motion.

Don't be such a clunker -- to use it appropriately here -- you really are silly to pick things apart for no purpose. When you do so. Which is often.

I seem to recall she didn't know about the orbital independence for the Moon -- that's what I meant. I know for sure she seems to talk like tidal lock "locks the face in place" AND doesn't know that it in fact is still rotating.

So, whatever the case, even if she does know about the timing of the orbit itself, the key issue is she doesn't understand how that translates to rotation, in the Sun's view (and the corresponding superposition, i.e., layers of views to account for observable motions).

That's all.
