IV.R116 — Why 0.0009% and not exact
The experimental deviation Q_exp - 2/3 = -6e-6 is of order alpha^2 ~ 5e-5, consistent with radiative correction from EM vacuum polarization (the same mechanism producing the pi^3 alpha^2 correction in the R formula); the Koide relation is exact at tree level within Category tau.
