What navigational consequence resulted from errors in medieval astrolabe plate construction?

💡 Explanation

In medieval astrolabes plate misalignment introduced parallax error during sighting; celestial altitudes are then miscalculated, because the plate orientation directly impacted angle measurements, therefore inaccurate altitude; rather than decklination, phases, or tidal calc.
