Since all frames of reference are equal, can we treat the Earth as fixed?

Since Einsteins GR tells us all the frames of reference are equal, is there anything invalid about treating the Earth as unmoving and the universe itself rotating?

Other than the fact that the mathematical model is much more complex, is there anything that is wrong with it?
