Hello,
I was just working on a response when Professor Case's came in, which
correctly identifies the problem

I looked over your last patch; I did make a mistake copying over the first
derivative of the term that you properly fixed, and the rest looks good. If
you haven't already checked it, I am quite confident that the expression for
cos^5 is correct as implemented (though obviously that made the 1st
derivative term incorrect). Assuming those terms aren't needed in any other
places, that should fix the issue.
All the best,
Jason
