minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•edit-25 months agoYeah, be mad but a “day” can be a time unit and a light cycle. In it’s literal meaning. I know that. You know that. If you doubt it, google “how long is a day on Mars?”. The answer of that question makes it clear that the word “day” have “light cycle” meaning in a literal sense. And I really hope you aren’t arguing that “day” can’t literally mean 24 hours.

Hope this helps.
