You aren't arguing, you're just throwing out insults. I'm challenging your programming.
I knew what pendulum you were talking about, as there's only one type that behaves this way (for Scientific reasons, of course). I'm sure since you're so deeply read on the subject, that you know many of these exist all over the world, and have failed to rotate, or rotated in the opposite direction of our spin countless times. Can you imagine actually starting this pendulum and not giving it a bias in a horizontal direction...? I can't believe that this convinces you, aren't you supposed to be awake?
You didn't answer the obvious question, which is that if this pendulum gained momentum from the earth's rotation, why would it ever need to be started at all?
So is it only proof when it works? And then evidence of nothing when it fails?
Why don't we talk about the fundamental fact that we can't measure the Earth's supposed curvature? We know exactly what it's claimed to be, but we can't ever seem to measure it.
Gravity is 100% why the pendulum stops and why there needs to be some sort of force applied to it to continue it moving in perpetuity because energy is lost by the pendulum after each swing. If you read the article you would see that 50+ foot pendulum can go on its own for 2 hours, and its path will move 0-15 degrees every 15 minutes depending on location. It had been proven, and there are videos, feel free to look them up.
As for measuring the curvature of the earth, how have you proved its 0?
There's no reason they'd ever not rotate, correct? The Earth's rotation is constant; and we're talking about the same physical device, after all.
There's no reason that they'd 'rotate' in the wrong direction, as the supposition is that their rotation is induced by the Earth. At the very least, the device would correct itself over time in both of these examples.
They don't. Anyway, the pendulum is silly.
Let's discuss the curvature measurement. The Earth's curve is a constant. You got very excited at your redundancy, changing the angle of observation changes the angle of observation. Well done. At least I know that you're aware of this.
I'm on the shoreline. This means I am at sea-level. I'm 6 feet tall. I can sit in a chair and witness this. We'll say in the chair that I'm 4 feet tall, when it's probably more like 3 feet tall in a beach chair. There should be a 9 foot wall of water in front of the boat. And yet... I can see the ocean behind the boat. The ocean should be 9 feet out-of-sight. Quite a lot of missing curvature. That's not possible on a ball.
You'll say refraction, I'll say to myself 'why does literally everyone think that refraction could ever possibly do this', and that'll probably be the end of this.
You should try this yourself since it's easy to do. See what you find.

Is that because of gravity, too?

These devices have failed. Often.
