They both revolve around their barycenter. So neither one revolving around the other is ground truth. In practice either one can be the right choice (earth at center for video game, sun at center for astronomy predictions).

And where's the barycenter located? When keeping an open mind make sure your brain doesn't fall out.

People are using natural language. And considering the barycenter usually sits inside the sun it isn't that wrong of a statement.

While you're technically correct, everyone already understood
