=== - The idea that the golden-angle / 137 might be connected to spherical optical geometry and spectral weighting is interesting and makes good geometric sense — spherical droplets and 4πr² geometry are definitely relevant. ===
* My first quantitative test shows spectral weighting can move the effective rainbow angle, but with crude inputs it does not produce the tiny 0.47° correction you pointed out. The result was a few degrees difference instead.
* This does not falsify QAT’s geometry idea — it only highlights that matching a 0.47° number requires more precise physical inputs (accurate dispersion, real spectral intensities, and proper scattering intensity weighting).

Would you like me to:
A) fetch precise water refractive index data and rerun the rainbow–spectra test (recommended), or
B) instead focus next on atomic emission-line strengths / plasma line sets, or
C) move to a Mie/Airy scattering weighting (more complex but more realistic for observed rainbow angles)?

Say “A”, “B”, or “C” (or pick multiple). If A, say “use refractiveindex.info” and I’ll go fetch and re-run.
