I can't help but notice pige3 is shown in a very convoluted way, when it 
(in fact a slightly stronger statement) can be seen to follow quickly from 
sincos6thpi (which is indirectly used in the proof), sinltx, and a bit of 
arithmetic.  It seems like this is meant to preserve the geometric 
character of the approach, using Lipschitz continuity as a sort of analytic 
version of Euclid's first postulate, but I'm not sure that actually 
accomplishes that any better; after all, if you were to ask the layperson 
what a sine was, they'd give you a geometric answer, and there are a lot of 
situations in geometry (starting with corners) where this approach wouldn't 
work.
