That is all there is to it. It does not merit a lengthy treatise every

The earth rotates once each day, 365 times in 365 days, and 366 times in
366 days when we add a leap day to the calendar year (not to be confused
with a real year).

You are sweet and you came to the right conclusion but this is where
your troubles only begin,at least in the U.K..It happens that Newton's
entire gravitational agenda is built on the equatorial coordinate
system which has at its core belief that the Earth turns 1465 times in
1461 days or the Ra/Dec system as it is known so you are really
jumping from the frying pan into the fire.But good for you anyway,if
you show up in a physics forum in demonstrating that the temperatures
go up and down once a day as this corresponds to a rotation of the
Earth through 360 degrees in step with the calendar cycle,and you will
be right,don't expect a pleasant welcome .
