Why would you get downvoted in a community called LinkedIn Lunatics where we are expressly making fun of the content of the post?

I'll probably get down voted for this opinion, but the earth is round and orbits the sun.

False! The Earth and Sun orbit the center of gravity between the two of them!

The barycenter of the earth-sun orbit is within the surface of the sun, therefore the earth is understood to orbit the sun.

The JUPITER-Sun orbit barycenter, however, is outside the surface of the sun.

False, the barry center is currently outside the sun but will return to a point within the Sun's surface sometime in 2027 and will then exit again sometime in 2033.
