In the absence of the rifling..or with a different charge in the round, or with even the slightest deformation between two otherwise identical rounds...you don't get similar rotation. Last I checked, planet sized rifled barrels with standard charges and standard sized and shaped planet projectiles are rare out there in space.
Is that your final answer or do you want to go back to your first example of "toilets?"
The issue isn't about "rifling", but rather rotation. Rifling determines speed while proving stabilization. Change the rifle, the round, or both, and it's still not going to change the orientation of the bullet's rotation.
We've already concluded that the imperfections/oddities could account for some of the effects in consideration of planets. See above.

Good for you, and imperfections and oddities in your arguments explain your own eccentricities. I could point out why your rejoinder on bullets, above, is wrong again, but I don't see the point.

Hello Cherub786.
So.... other than a 'Philosophical' type of 'Nothing', what other... uhm... types or examples of an actual, litteral 'Nothing' could you elucidate/explain/demonetrate?
Cheers.

Nothing can't be demonstrated. It can only be imagined or conceived of. Therefore, I don't know any kind of nothingness apart from the philosophical definition or conception of it.
I am commenting on the paper that I was referred to Creation of Universes from Nothing by Alexander Vilenkin

So, Cherub786, other than a notion of 'Nothing' there's scant examples of anything extant that the term would apply to.
Hence, why might you think the thought experiment of 'Nothing' could apply to the period before we know about our reality?
Cheers.

Dude, the term nothing can't apply to anything extant because it's the opposite of extant.

Yes, my reply windows are short and limited. Sorry.
Kind of exactly. If 'Nothing can not exist 'Now'/presently...... Why should such ever have existed?
