[annoyed orange character points at a diamond shape] This is objectively wrong, I’ve personally seen a four sided structure that isn’t a square

        Why did it make you angry? All gravitationally bound objects orbit around a common center. For the solar system that center wobbles around inside the sun depending on where Jupiter and Neptune are in their orbits. The rest of the mass of the solar system does contribute, but it is generally negligible for most conversations. This is actually one of the ways that exoplanet hunters have found literally thousands of planets in the last decade or so.
