Which measurement error increases when an astrolabe's mater warps?

💡 Explanation

Altitude readings become unreliable because warping reduces the astrolabe's angular accuracy, inducing observational distortions via parallax error; therefore, celestial altitude accuracy degrades, rather than affecting planetary/equinox measures, as the device precision gets skewed not just rescaled.
