In an infinite reality, is every coordinate system arbitrary?

So, North and South can exchange with its opposite, right? Or is there anything to it that is not arbitrary? 

Northpole could have been our Southpole if we had chosen so? And vice versa(Northpole>>Southpole)

 


Isn't it so, yes or no?

Up, down, north, south, left, right are all made-up distinctions.


Dont look at me! Look inside!

What's also interesting is that in an infinite universe,  any point can be considered the center of the Universe.

As anywhere on a sphere can be regarded as the center?

9 minutes ago, now is forever said:

that means what we perceive as chair is only an object to sit on, made of multiple parts and materials and for many different occasions - we call it chair but it really is just an object to sit on.

Well, it's not even an object to sit on, this is just how we interpret and use "it". But where does a chair begin annd end? It is also vitally alive, if looked at in closer inspection.
