SenrokaiandClaude Opus 5.5 d93bb1ee2c Say that Pluto's tilt is checked against its own IAU pole, not against Horizons
The ETL's obliquity check, its failure message and the renderer spec's test name all compared
Pluto's drawn tilt with "the obliquity Horizons gives", as 1c86584 and cdf474b said too. Horizons'
Pluto page states none (grep -i obliq finds only the page's IAU76 frame note); the 119.6 degrees is
hand-entered in fetchSolarSystem.ts from the IAU WGCCRE 2015 pole (RA 132.993, Dec -6.163), which
with Pluto's orbit gives 119.609. So for Pluto the check confirms that the kernel's pole and the
sense of W were read as written, which it would still catch misread, but not the pole against a
second source.

The build.ts comment says so, its message names Pluto's reference as its IAU pole, and the spec's
test name and comment no longer attribute Pluto's tilt to Horizons. Labels only; no behaviour
changes.
