Well, people, I think we'd better get down to some serious business...

Agreed. Building instructions on the way soon as I can see whether improvements are
required as as been variously suggested:a. use an angle sensor
b. use a pressure sensor
c.straighten the curved line, etc
Or keep it as it is , following the adage "If it ain't broke, don't fix it".

A whole field of research has opened up. Certainly, there's a lot still to be
done.
