Not really. I did notice that and looked around for a better fit, but
didn't find one. It may simply be that the optimization by chance found
a local minimum in the 4.0 case that is poorer than the 3.5 case. That
seems to happen. It may be that more effort would yield a better
design. If there is an optical reason for it, I don't have a clue.
