A day's time is determined by the Earth's position RELATIVE TO THE SUN. Noon where you are on earth always occurs when you are facing most directly to the SUN. The included graphic shows the earth on one side of the sun at noon, and on the other side at midnight. No mystery.
Time and the 24 hour rotation isn’t relative. Your reply is discounting the earths full rotation in 24 hours on it’s axis while in orbit. Spin a globe in a full rotation while walking around the perimeter of a room with a light in the center of the room. With each rotation and step, the globe will be in the same orientation as it was at the start.
If you define a day on earth as the period between the sun at its highest point in the sky where you are, until the sun next appears at its highest point in the sky where you are (and I do), my analysis is correct. You are proposing that the earth rotates EXACTLY 360 degrees in the course of a day. It does not, it actually must rotate slightly more than 360 each day due to Earth's ORBIT of the Sun.
Simple. As the earth rotates on its own axis, it is also orbiting the sun. It makes a complete orbit approximately every 365 days. Just about 1 degree farther along in its orbit each day. Therefore, every day earth must rotate approximately 361 degrees for the sun to be most directly above each successive day. So after 180 days, half a year, the Earth's actual appearance would be 180 degrees from what your illustration shows.
Now, I know you are going to say I can't prove that we are actually orbiting the sun. Just as you cannot prove the earth is flat. But using an incorrect illustration to make your point is not proof of anything.
Being a flat-earther helps demonstrate how easy it is to believe, and argue in favor of something which is total bullshit and scientifically wrong. Like Joe Biden's victory.
The more people wake up to all lies of the system, the better. It exposes the education indoctrination, the atheistic pseudoscience push, the government stealing billions of taxpayers money for decades through NASA.
A solar day is the time taken to get the sun back where it was and a "sidereal" day is the time taken for the stars to reappear in the same place. The difference is about 4 minutes a day.
Also, there are years and years. We force them to be either 365 or 366 solar days but they are actually just over 365.25 days.
Basically, the math(s) is not as exact as you imply.
Sidereal days are not solar days and pertains to stars, so let’s put that aside. NASA’s own website states that “the Earth revolves around the sun in 365 days, 5 hours, 59 minutes and 16 seconds.” So let’s say 6 hours difference over the course of 1 year and 3 hours between winter and summer. 3 hours either side of noon would not alter necessary reversal of day/night in the heliocentric model.
You can't just "put aside" the things that make the difference. After 365 solar days the earth has not completed a revolution of the sun. So it can be facing the sun because solar days depend on when the sun appears. In fact, it HAS to be facing the sun after any number of solar days because that is the definition of a solar day.
Even Q already said the earth ain't flat.
Where?

When you say “must”, what is the basis for that? Is that based on actual measurements or a math-based calculation to account for the discrepancy?

Ok... Let's just go with the earth is flat ..
Does that change anything really?.
Does it fix the federal reserve system? No
Does it fix the UN's and WEF'S plans for humanity? No
Does it fix big pharma and the military industrial complex? No
So tell us, how is the flat earthers solving anything at all..
We will wait.

How is it scientifically wrong then? Should be easy for you.
Oh it is easy for me. I am scientifically retarded. Never was able to accept covid science, or global warming science.

There are days and there are days!

You can't just 'put aside' sidereal days, your argument relies on 360 degree rotation for the days and that is what sidereal days are.
Also, review the sidebar.
