C'mon READ the link...

Don't make me have to whine about link reading like TB...

"You will have already guessed what the fixed angle of turn is - it is Phi cells per turn or phi turns per new cell"

"The amazing thing is that a single fixed angle can produce the optimal design no matter how big the plant grows. So, once an angle is fixed for a leaf, say, that leaf will least obscure the leaves below and be least obscured by any future leaves above it. Similarly, once a seed is positioned on a seedhead, the seed continues out in a straight line pushed out by other new seeds, but retaining the original angle on the seedhead. No matter how large the seedhead, the seeds will always be packed uniformly on the seedhead."


Phi is an infinite series. "No matter how large"= infinite.

Mathematics and optimal form is nothing new. It just takes someone halways quickwitted, and not religiously indoctrinated, to plug 2+2 together in a realistic cosmology and one realizes that the universe is infinite, not finite - and that a realistic cosmology must incorporate these glaring infinities which surround us. That's why the big bang is so glaringly wrong - it completely fails to acknowledge or incorporate these infinities into the mix.
