So what everyone is basically saying is that the reason my pinhole images
are not precisely sharp is because it is in actuality impossible. Even with
all the equations and formulas. Correct? Not because I'm a lazy sob who
refuses to measure the size of my focal length and pinhole.

Thanks for all the answers. I get it, but at the same time don't get it. I
understand what is happening, but the actual reason why is out of my grasp.
Now I need to go and look at some of my color pinholes and see if I can
notice different color blurs. Do you think I will be able to see it?
