Why does LCA matter? Since the scanner is only looking at one pixel at a time, the PMTs only care about the average color levels, not their positions in the image from the lens.
Similarly, the focus on the film is what seems important to me. There is no image required for the PMTs since they are only concerned about the average color at that pixel.
Could the 134mm have been an attempt to lessen grain by "averaging" a little of the surrounding area?
