That was observed. Here it is derived: the finite-N ratio is a finite product of explicit factors at explicit lattice points, so its expansion in 1/N is a finite Taylor expansion, with no Stirling asymptotics and no truncation of anything. SETUP. Write x = s/2 with s = N - 2m the top admissible degree, and let a* = (m+1) x / m + delta, b* = (m-1) x / m - delta, where delta is the offset of comp 203's maximiser a* = floor(((m+1)s - (m-1))/(2m)) + 1 from the continuum point; delta lies in ((1-m)/(2m), (m+1)/(2m)] and depends only on s mod 2m, which is the sawtooth. Because both shifts move the degree by 2m, the degree-dependent part of the Bergman weights cancels in the ratio and ratio_m(N)^2 = m^2 prod_{i=1}^{m+1} (a*+i) prod_{i=1}^{m-1} (b*+i) / prod_{i=1}^{m} (x+i)^2. RESULTS. 1. THE 1/N TERM CANCELS, FOR EVERY m >= 2, BY A HALF-PAGE EXPANSION. Expanding the logarithm in 1/x: the delta-dependence of (m+1) log a* + (m-1) log b* cancels at first order (m delta/x - m delta/x); the first-order terms of the products are m(m+2)/(2x) + m^2/(2x) = m(m+1)/x from the numerator and m(m+1)/x from the denominator, which cancel; so log ratio_m(N)^2 = log ratio_cf(m)^2 + O(1/x^2). At m = 1 the maximiser is the corner b* = 0, not of this form, and the exact ratio is 4(1 - 1/N) (comp 157), so the 1/N coefficient is 1 there and 0 for every m >= 2. Verified symbolically (sympy, exact series in 1/x with delta symbolic) for m = 2 to 12, and the general-m first-order cancellation is checked as an exact identity of the coefficient sums. 2. THE N^-2 COEFFICIENT IN CLOSED FORM, SAWTOOTH INCLUDED. log ratio_m(N)^2 = log ratio_cf(m)^2 - m (6 m^2 delta^2 - 6 m delta + 1) / (6 (m^2 - 1) x^2) + O(x^-3), so (ratio_cf(m) - ratio_m(N)) N^2 -> ratio_cf(m) m (6 m^2 delta^2 - 6 m delta + 1) / (3 (m^2 - 1)). The quadratic is 6 (m delta - 1/2)^2 - 1/2: it is -1/2 when the lattice point sits at the continuum maximiser and 3m^2/2 - 1/2 at the ends of delta's range, so the deficit changes sign along the sawtooth and the ratio can exceed its limit at finite N. Verified in exact rational arithmetic: the residual (deficit N^2 - closed form) falls as 1/N between N and 2N and 4N, for m = 2 to 7, at every residue of s mod 2m. 3. THE BOOK'S SENTENCE IS NOW A THEOREM, with the amplitude of the sawtooth explicit: the single-monomial finite-N ratio converges to Lemma 5's closed form at rate N^-2 for m >= 2 with an oscillating coefficient bounded by ratio_cf(m) m (3m^2 - 1) / (6 (m^2 - 1)), and at rate N^-1 with coefficient 1 at m = 1. WHY IT CANCELS. The cancellation is first-order stationarity at an interior maximum: an O(1) displacement of a* leaves the 1/N term zero (tamper), a displacement proportional to x moves the limit itself below ratio_cf, and at m = 1 the maximiser is the corner b* = 0, where there is no stationarity and the 1/N term survives with coefficient 1. Runs in a few seconds; sympy for the series, fractions for the exact checks.
