If the Earth's axis were closer to "straight up and down" than

can be up or down for more than 24 hours would be smaller.
-- The "Tropic Zone", between the Tropic of Cancer and the
Tropic of Capricorn, where it's possible for the sun to be
directly overhead, would be narrower.
-- There would be less difference, everywhere, between the
lengths of daylight on the "longest day" and the "shortest day"
of the year.
-- The seasons would be less extreme everywhere. There would
be less difference, everywhere, between the coldest part of the
Winter and the warmest part of the Summer.

Speed of light in the medium = 3 x 108 /1.5
= 2 x 108 m/s.
