The band was not the sampling
Five rises in the middle of the coarse rung stick on three eighths of a turn, and the ladder that found them is swept at five thousandths — coarse enough that a band of the same kind could sit inside any finer rung unsampled. Swept at a tenth of that across a whole finer rung, nothing locks.
Where the angle comes fromWhat a count cannot decide
A spiral count is the measurement this whole subject is built on, and it is deliberately blind to everything that varies inside a rung. Four results this collection now holds are results about that blindness rather than about the arrangements.
Where the angle comes fromThe slide a counter holds constant
Inside one rung the settled divergence moves by more than a degree, monotonically, with no flat stretch anywhere — measured at a thousandth on one rung and at half a ten-thousandth on another. A rung is a plateau in one reported number laid over a geometry that never stops moving.
