Why one uses Schwarzschild metric instead of FLRW metric when deriving things such
- deflection of light by the sun
- precession of perihelia of planets
Also, as our solar system is not isotropic nor static, it seems that by using the Schwarzschild metric we would get only an approximation on the results. So why we still get accurate result for the precession of perihelia of Mercury?
