Hubble's law, it doesn't keep theta constant for every point.

I never assumed ds/dt = const. Rather I calculated ds/dt and found it
not surprisingly positive, which I concluded was insufficient to show
ds/dt would eventually be > c. AG
Hubble's law or something equivalent is necessary to give more
definition to the problem. The balloon model does the same as Hubble's
law; it posits that the expansion preserves proportions, i.e. if
s=>s+ds then n*s=>n*s +n*ds.
