Alright, interesting.

1. Just because a fact is established later in a series does not mean that it isn't true before then.

3. Why were you doing pixel calculations to get the size of the moon, then, if everything was animated by the "yeah, that will work" reasoning? Anyway, "they just created the sizes of things to be what felt right" really just supports my un-numbered idea that calculations aren't terribly meaningful here. And, yeah, my bad for mixing up diameter and radius for that, but that only changes things by half an order of magnitude so I'm not going to fret about it. Also, the Moon isn't going to crash into the planet naturally in a cartoony world such as Mario's; I'm pretty sure the Moon is only there by the power of "this is where the moon is supposed to be"; you can tell by how the moon sort of "locks" back into orbit after the volcano explosion.

4. Fair enough.

5. I don't see it. The volcano visibly deforms and the moon lowers while it's doing so, and bursts back into place while pushing the moon out. Looks like the volcano doing it to me. I'm not familiar with Tiki Kong, but that seems to be what happened.

6. I'm not arguing against Luigi being continent-busting--frankly, with over 100 Mario games out there, I'd be surprised if he wasn't--but star-busting? I don't see it.
