Fred,
while your procedure is definitely more sophisticated than what I do,
let me point out that the Rsym is genuinely a bad measure for this, as
it depends strongly on redundancy. Does more robust measures (e.g.
Rpim) show similar "inflexion"? I suspect it will at least shift
towards higher resolution.
Cheers,
