Ah. It's because it's easier to describe the motions of the
planets that way.

Yet, in common speech, we almost NEVER speak in heliocentric

of the Universe. Even moreso, we tend to put OURSELVES at the
center of the Universe. Rarely do we even see ourselves from
another's perspective, unless it suits something that ALSO
happens to be our own perspective as well.
