Now we know what it's called, anyway.

It would change the tone of the story somewhat.

It's not confusing to the reader, because the 
metaphor is firmly established, but I'm just 
looking at it from tIna'tIn's point of view. I 
guess she knows that everyone compares her to the 
sun, so 'avtanDIl doesn't even have to say it.
