I didn't say anything about science. My point was the very measurement used to determine how long a day is missing. It is similar to saying "sunrise" without having a sun present.
I see what you’re saying. But in the context of God’s Word being settled in Heaven before the foundation of the world, the events being recorded inside of time by a human author and supernaturally preserved, and God being sovereign over all of the aforementioned, I think day means day. That is to say, He knew how long it took, He knew what would be written down, knew what men would think of what He wrote, knew about this thread online millennia in the future, and isn’t the author of confusion.
To that end, I personally think folks have a better case by taking the position that day means something other than 24 hours (say, a thousand years) rather than saying day meant something pre-sun than it did post-sun in the creation account. The Lord of Time has spoken and we have His Word today.
