A ring cannot make a spiral
The peaks on a Turing ring do not all appear at once — there is a first and a second. But which two lead is decided by the starting disorder, so the angle between them comes out at 177°, then 47°, then 109°, then 151°. A divergence angle is a relationship that repeats, and this one does not.
The residual was the window
After the depth and the q over n squared scale are taken out of a disorder dip, something looked left over and looked ordered by how crowded the fraction's neighbourhood is. Measured on fractions whose neighbourhoods are identical by construction, seven widths across a factor of two and a half in denominator agree to one per cent. There is no residual; there was a comparison made at different effective windows.
