Which measurement error increased significantly in astrolabes manufactured during faster production in 9th-century Baghdad and Islamic Spain?

💡 Explanation

Manufacturing efficiency led to less precise manual calibration. The increased **cumulative error** during faster production impacted ecliptic alignment, therefore reducing the accuracy of predicting planetary positions rather than affecting stellar altitude measurements or lunar calculations alone, because those have independent scales.
