I've evaded nothing. I've clarified the proper questioning in which you should be engaging to actually ascertain the value of your "discovery".
For example, asking myself if I have the right theory for nuclear fission by demanding people tell me the color of my shirt will not really help me establish the validity of my nuclear theory, will it?
I clarified the question so as to make the weighing of your theory more meaningful.

I have... repeatedly. Cubits, digits and seqeds.
They are the most culturally evidenced, most logical measuring system used to build the pyramids. All ratios and other calculations are going to have certain artifactual qualities as a result of the system being used to create the structure.
Remember when Hoagland found the "cities" on Mars? Large areas of what looked like city blocks? Well, as it turns out, the photographs he was using were made with a reconstructed set of pixels that, when enlarged to the extreme that Hoagland enlarged them, of course looked like a perfect grid pattern. They were systemic artifacts.
We have no idea whether your 40 "points" in your data set that you've found are just artificats of the "cubit/seqed" system they used to build the pyramid.

A cubit long.

I'm not the one trying to prove that 40 points out of thousands of possible combinations demonstrate intent. You are. You have to prove it. I don't have to disprove it. Your theory is irrelevant until you do.

I have offered my own ideas on this subject. We don't need to have a diagram to tell us how and why they built the pyramid. They left plenty of information for us to deduce that ourselves.
Of course, you can't do it with autocad or a calculator. Those things are entirely alien to Egyptian culture.
