Amazing. At this late hour I will not touch the first, mathematical, part. However, I would like to make an addendum to Shakespearean part related to the speed of light, etc. Over the centuries many have argued that William Shakespeare, given his education and experience could not have written the works attributed to him. One who is often suggested to have written under WS's name is: Francis Bacon, 1st Viscount St Alban. Compare: Bacon — 22 January 1561 – 9 April 1626

Compare to William Shakespeare bapt. 26 April 1564 – 23 April 1616 Bacon was a polymath who was a poet, advisor to the throne of England, an early definer of the "scientific method" and a Rosicrucian. The latter may or may not have given him knowledge of the ancients, including the knowledge contained within the structure and dimensions of the Great Pyramid.

His writing is very different from what was published under the name of Shakespeare, that's why many reject him as the author. Edward de Vere is a more likely candidate. But Bacon does seem to be part of the project, encoding secret scientific knowledge in the plays and legend around Shakespeare. He seems to have taken over that role from John Dee after the latter died and Bacon became the head of Rosicrucianism. I don't know this, as I'm just going down this rabbit hole, but this is Alan Green's stance. Do check out the rest of his videos, he has great stuff.

Edward de Vere only seems a likely candidate because we don't have anything he wrote so we can't make the same comparison.

The only reason he is ever brought up is snobbery.

How are you even drawing this conclusion? There are lots of parallels between Edward de Vere and Shakespeare.
