Ladder — the series

One essay so far on this idea, and more questions about it than one essay answers.
  1. Every transition as the rise falls. The pair climbs 1/2 → 2/3 → 3/5 → 5/8 → 8/13 → 13/21. Consecutive transitions are 0.382, 0.382, 0.383, 0.382 of the previous rise — 1/φ² is 0.3820.

    The Fibonacci ladder

    Lower the rise on a cylinder and the parastichy pair climbs — 1 and 2, then 2 and 3, then 3 and 5 — each rung the sum of the two before it. Nothing in the arithmetic mentions Fibonacci, the transitions sit at computable rises, and consecutive ones stand in the ratio 1/φ².
