Which consequence occurs to the accuracy of an astrolabe when the alidade vane is skewed?

💡 Explanation

A skewed alidade results in parallax errors because the observer's line of sight is misaligned during stellar elevation measurements, therefore inaccurate altitude calculations will occur, rather than simplifying calculations; structural integrity or alternative coordinate systems are affected.
