I've been peevish about that too. 4" off-square makes no sense.
Solved it by getting a Cal-king. Much happier, more snuggling with my wife, and my toes don't hold up the end of the blankets any more (I'm 6'2").
The only problem I've had since is that 4 Cal-king sheets we ordered in a row were mislabeled, and in fact Kings (or some other shape/size. trust me, they've been pretty weird). But that could be because I'm in the Midwest, where Cal-anything is mostly unheard of.
To get back on topic, the article is rather amusingly complete... I'm quite impressed someone would put this much work into this (though not surprised. A (math) geek, obsessed? never!).
