I disagree with that math interpretation. Unless pi was determined right after the bent pyramid. I believe they understood triangles and perpendiculars to some degree. A least the symmetry of them. I think they started with one alignment as a reference. Like an east to west line on a certain day and a star rise on a certain evening. Whatever. That reference might have changed since then. But I think they started at the center with a perpendicular, X marks the spot. And they went from there. I'm talking about layout reference of course, not construction. They probably used water as a level reference at the base, as well as each stage of construction. Water for the horizontal and plum for the vertical. I am also of the firm belief that those masons, leaned to move those small blocks with relative ease. A few months of those blocks, and it would have become second nature. Watching a gang of them at work, would be a real eye opener for sure. But the super skill was those large stones, and the counter weights. And that slide that cradled it. That was genius. Along with that internal square spiral. And of course, dumping the ramp back into the pyramid. A great plan that came together. The other pyramids should be scanned too. If there is not similar patterns in those pyramids, it will start another puzzle.
Unless someone finds some un-known records, we can only guess the minutia. Anymore access will be very drawn out, with a non-destructive, or with a non-disturbance policy. They have never allowed access to the cellars of the Sphinx. Might be a library there, who knows?
