Here we could suggest that there is a more or less “continuous” lamina-like form between the pictorial space frustum and the segmented forms “further away”.
But what happens if we tweak one of the segmented regions?
Here I’ve swapped one of the segmented […]

where P'(1) and f'(1) are derivatives evaluated at sp=s1 and i=i] and
therefore constants. By using the boundary condition and integrating,
we obtain
