Well put ...

To make everything consistent, the dome have to be very flat on top, but possible.
(even flatter than ellipsoidal dome, the red line, in post 44)

The problem with the setup is that graphically fitted R is then thrown away.
The maximum v is 36", so the carefully fitted volume is wasted ...
Worst, this wasted piece affected calculated dome volume (badly under-estimated).

I like the ellipsoidal dome setup, since the shape is adjustable.
(If v0 is allowed to change, like what I did in post 36)
