No, the "spin" thing was just to preemptively get past people who might say something like the point is so small that one side would freeze and one side would burn to a crisp. Because, you know, as humans we are not dimensionless points, lol, we have volume.

Right, but if spinning is necessary, than surely the rate of rotation is equally important as distance.

If both sides of you you are deadly cold or deadly hot, no amount of rotation is going to make sure it evens out.
