Isn't all Latin pronunciation pretty much just made up these days?
I think the power dynamic makes a difference in terms of pronunciation of non-english words. I think it matters less if you're referring to western Europe, but not making an effort in colonised places where the indigenous languages have been historically marginalised is pretty bad form.
I think the problem with this is our pronunciation of Latin comes from Church Latin and they aren’t big on the zodiac.
