My stupid brain says that plants and wildlife evolved on this planet with an earth that rotated around the sun.
And a moon that rotated around the earth.
By doing this we naturally have daylight, darkness and tides.
Since the earth is tilted and it doesn't rotate around the sun in a prefect circle we have seasons.
Plus the earth wobbles and we have solar flares creating more complex changes in our environment.
Then there is the dreaded asteroid or comet that comes around from time to time resetting everything and we start all over again.
I cant imagine anything on this earth of ours being the way it is without the earth and our solar system being the way it is.
Consensus, plants need a rest and we need a rest.
Our body produces melatonin as the sun goes down thusly making us sleepy.
