Dear Mr. Cecil Moore,

I am terribly sorry but
I am not so sure that
I am in position to follow your argument,
except perhaps that
the equation

| ...
| |b1|^2 = |s11*a1|^2 + |s12*a2|^2 + 2*s11*a1*s12*a2
| ...

needs a modification to
the third term on its right hand side,
in which,
instead of

2*s11*a1*s12*a2

we have to set

2*Re{[s11*a1]*Conjg[s12*a2]}

Therefore,
I can only guess that
this subtle distinction is the source of the trouble
because this is maybe due to
the sure existence of two,
after Kurokawa,
different physical meanings
for the same physical phenomenon.

And finally,
unfortunately enough,
it seems that there are
maybe more than a finite number
of possible such physical meanings
for the same physical phenomenon...

Sincerely yours,
