This means, to me, that the arbitrary phase angles have absolutely no effect on the resultant interference pattern which is observed. But isn't this what the phase angles are supposed to effect? AG

The screen pattern is determined by /*relative* phase angles for the different paths that reach the same point on the screen/. The relative angles only depend on different path lengths, so the overall phase angle is irrelevant.
