"if you can achieve Baerwald's alignment, it should agree precisely with the GeoDisc."

Nope... That's the whole point here...

My pics are obviously good enough to determine proper alignment or very, very close... Way closer than anyone who used a Geo-Disc and had to tilt their cartridge too... Swear to God... That stuff would not hold up at all when checked with the standard Baerwald protractor. I'm not trying to fool you.

With different tonearm designs... It's simply not possible to do an accurate Baerwald alignment the way the Geo-Disc attempts to do it. The Geo-Disc worked fine with my old table... not the Technics. Worthless to me now... Want it???

Seriously think about it... Is the Technics alignment tool that has come with the table for over 20 years flawed? Would Technics design the arm in a way that required the cartridge to be mounted crooked? Technics does utilize the Baerwald standard. Using the Technics tool and checking with the Baerwald protractor will verify this fact. Do I have to take pics of that too?
