No, sorry, I don't think it is.

But I am sure that everyone here, including yourself, is already well aware that the required angle of taper is not the same for all speeds, but varies in direct proportion to speed, and that what I said about faster speeds needing a longer, more gradual angle to prevent detachment is the truth.

And I am sure that everyone here also knows that it is just silly to radius the trailing edge, as that causes turbulence in the flow.
