Yes it is amazing and relevant to many things.
Even including speaker design.
As mentioned you have to be careful.
Just like Humans tend to see " faces" in everything.
Because of pattern recognition.
Often been seen that people
aware of the ratio like to " find" or " see"
it in everything. When it isnt related.
But yes Pyramids have shown height and base measurements
equal to the ratio.
keep in mind
(A+B)/A = A/B
So without decimal points or rounding up
the constant is closer to 2 not 1.618
but overall it still works as far a " pleasing"
or good ratio for objects or design.
When you really stray from the ratio
When you realize how goofy and dumb some things look.
And why it works so well.
Seems nature has done the same.
Often compared to plants. And many follow the ratio.
Also many plants and flowers actually follow
different ratio for maximum sun exposure.

Skinny or wide it works.
Also works well for bracing placement.
And flattest response or least diffraction
falls on the ratio as well
what driver is the wide cabinet for on the far left?
and how many inches.
Been meaning to ask.
* edit* besides the obvious description stating the
name and size LOL

This particular graphic is from the Alpair 7ms set, but there are specific boxes for many, many drivers.

like seeing wide baffles
Some build photos you have posted showed
some other wide baffle designs.
Was pretty darn cool.

I think we should just consider this sacred geometry to be natural geometry.
sacred ? Do words have sense yet ? The mix of words : natural, sacred, vis à vis of geometry is a pure blah bar theorem. Known here as Snail oil ?
Time to study again the story of geometry and scales numbers since phythagor to Fibonacci instead ? Or pit and gore ?
Look at fractal paterns too, after. Or define again the word "Natural". 🙂
So r u defining ‘snake oil’ as things u don’t understand or don’t believe in? Math is the language of the gods, the universe or your cat depending on yr belief system…a Taoist would say that math u cannot understand represents the Tao…snake oil is made up attributes in order to sell u on something, looking for spirituality in numbers and patterns represents the search for creation and meaning, sacred indeed. No need to belittle others search because it’s not yours
It is a great loss when people treats nature as less than sacred, then put money, profit, comfort or something else meager in its place.
I used to think there was some ‘sacred’ geometry in the location of resonance modes in 1/4 wave . It didn’t really pan out, but there were some interesting numerical patterns in the series of resonances in straight pipes or conical?
(especially if I set the speeed of sound to ‘345.6m/sec, a ‘Pythagoras tuning number for ‘a8 ?)

There is a closed (for now) thread here, 'Funniest Snake Oil Theories (or Stories?)'.
That will help you define snake oil...

Some of the messages one can write with the Red ❌ Pen from PWB Electronics are ‘x26‘x and ‘x = PRESENT TIME. I have experimented with Orgone and sacred geometry shapes like tetrahedrons, etc. but never has any luck as far as audio goes. I have experimented a lot with Feng Shui with respect to audio but never had much luck, except in a very general way. But the Red ❌ Pen - now, that was an entirely different story.

The Sumerians developed the oldest known writing system to support bookkeeping, so one can say written language was developed to make ‘math’ easier…careful, it’s a slippery slope from here to the kings list
I cannot read cuneiform so I cannot verify, vastly incomplete but nice number 9 sacred sauce. Also points out that both the Mayans and Sumerians believe humanity and or civilization is much older than the 6-12k years modern archaeology gives us
