The famous Salludon angles photo which calculates his brow ridge angle at 87
[caveman tier]
1744381942603

His actual nasofrontal angle [110]

How many of you have seen that original photo and looked past the incorrect angles and just took it as law?

Many such examples.
Why are looksmaxxers so bad at calculating angles? I swear 1 in 3 I see are just wrong and when I correct it they fight me to the bitter end.

the angle calculation discourse reveals a deeper issue - most amateur looksmax analysis confuses soft tissue with hard tissue landmarks. salludon's case shows how even iconic examples get mismeasured when people eyeball 2D photos instead of using 3D cephalometric points. the 87 vs 110 discrepancy likely comes from whether you're measuring at nasion or sellion which are different reference points entirely.

science? nah. just basic anatomy any ortho resident could spot. but since we're dumbing it down, wrong landmarks = wrong angles = wrong cope. measure from the same points everyone else uses or stay confused.

And what do you believe is the correct landmark, soft tissue or bone

They aren’t bad they are just spreading misinformation.
