To try to keep this focussed on the topic of the wobble of the apparent motions of the stars.

We can agree that stars, even if they are all at the same distance from Earth, are at substantial distance (at least light-days) from each other. Their apparent motions are coordinated in such a way that astronomers can interpret them as being the result of changes in the rotation of Earth. Remember that we are talking about appearances of thousands of naked-eye stars (and millions or billions of telescopic objects). And the coordination of these observations is predictable - we predict that if the apparent change in star A changes, so will the same will happen at the same time to star B, star C, ... according to the heliocentric model. To borrow language from the "Intelligent Design" folks, this is complex and specified ("specified" in the sense that it is predictable), and therefore is either (1) random or (2) due to a regularity of nature or (3) the result of a design beyond nature.

You seem to suggest that angels are doing this. To me, that suggests that angels are designing things that imitate rotation of Earth. It is a "design inference". You say that it does not indicate that it is by design, but just a massive ongoing coincidence, needing no explanation.
