Three machines a protractor cannot tell apart

The same four-bar at 0.60×, 1.00×, 1.50×, drawn one inside another at the same crank angle. Every one of them puts its output link at 102.914064°, and the three readings differ by 2.8e-14° — which is the solver's floor rather than a difference. A protractor on the output link is reading a function of the ratios of the lengths, so it is the same function for every member of this family, at every crank angle, exactly. Whatever such an instrument recovers, it is not the size of the machine.
