no, I'm not thinking of that, I'm thinking of the fact that it is quite commonly pointed out that the earth-moon 2-body system rotates around a point 1000 miles below the surface of the earth (the center of the earth being 4000 miles below the surface); and I'm pointing out that if you are going to point that out about the earth-moon, it's even more interesting to point out the more dramatic situation regarding the sun-jupiter 2-body system where the point is outside of the sun.
