Pretty sure the sun is way more than seven times brighter than the moon
Edit: after a quick internet search, the sun looks to be about 400,000 times brighter than the moon
That might be, but the moon is more important, since it shines at night when it's dark. The sun is only in the sky during the day, when there's plenty of light anyway.

b- because of the sun, no? or is that the joke i'm missing lol
Yep, that's a whoosh my friend
Ah well. Thanks!
Technically, TECHNICALLY, the Sun is infinitely brighter than the Moon since it emits no light at all ☝️
eh, as a videographer who measures and labels the output of lights professionally sometimes, we count bounced lights as lights.
thank god a videographer chimed in
Someone uttered for the first time ever
Technically, TECHNICALLY, TECHNICALLY, moon absorbs a lot of the incoming sunlight and a lot of the light from the moon is black body radiation instead of straight reflection. Moon does emit light.
Not infinite, the moon has a temperature.
The moon has an albedo of roughly 6% and is so small compared to the sun. So yep 400,000 times checks out
