Ahahaha ohh my goodness that is hilarious...
North-centric pancake model... I love it
Where did u pull that from???
Man u had me laughing hard there for a few minutes...
A lot of what they say sounds like they are from observations taken from the northern hemisphere, before they ventured into the south around the 16th century.
I'm not sure Tim even takes any notice of the diagrams I have posted. He never refers to them anyway. I tried to make them as self explanatory as possible.
And if I had a dollar for every time I said facing crux = facing south I'd be rich. Now he suggests the the crux is somewhere between us...To the east or west
Moses has given the best responses out of the FE crew here... I don't agree with him but he leaves a possibility tiny as it may be

According to what is known about the crux the position is according to the time of day. The point is that they in Argentina still see the crux in the same position you do. It is not pointing down for them and up for you. At 6pm and 6am is pointing up for both of you. Which means on a FE model it is pointing down in Africa in the middle of the night. That line of the southern pole is then opposite of the Grey line you drew, but such a line would represent the ever turning compass point. All three of you are looking up at crux, but the line of south is lower than the horizon for Africa and way above the horizon for Australia and SA.
Instead of a fixed tilt running through the globe. Think of a fixed line pointing up on one side of the map and down on the opposite side. With the center of the map, the north pole as the point this lines intersects earth. It is always moving, and in 12 hour points, as it follows the orbit of crux.
