Sorry, but I'm not sure I understand what the issue is from that plot. You
said "the single path does not fly off but the overall fit does" but I sort
of don't see that in the image you show. Is something flying off there?
The k-range you show appears to be pretty limited to me, roughly k=3 to 9
Ang^-1. For a single path, I can certainly believe that actually is the
"best fit" even if it not "very good". But it's hard to say from only one
view of the fit.
If you suspect (or well, "made") the splines be different, I might suggest
looking at the mu0(E) arrays themselves, or perhaps plotting the k^2*chi(k)
for the two background subtraction.

Thanks for your help!
