Apparent Size depends on Tangent, Right?

A threat to my "one light day up" view? · Apparent Size depends on Tangent, Right?

I mean, when you see perspective diagrams in books on perspective drawing, you see triangles lopped off at two different lengths from the eye, and since the angle is the same, the opposite side (to eye) over the adjacent side (distance) would remain the same.

This means, same tangent = same visual size of a given object from a given distance, including of course, the distance of the drawing on the paper which is closer and needs smaller drawings than the real objects.

Now, this has a consequence for the problem of how Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 should be "seeing" (i e registering and transmitting to us who can see on earth) some things depending on real distance.

So, suppose fix stars are one light day away, both are about 18 light hours up, that is, both would have just a quarter left of the distance to fix stars on their side.

On the other hand, if the fix stars are fully two light days up, even if that need not have been the case when they were created on day IV, the distance left would be 5/8's of original distance.

If they are fully three light days up, there would be 9/12 or 3/4 left of original distance.

If they are four light days up, the distance of Voyager 1 to them is 13/16 of ours.

Suppose they are five light days up, the distance of Voyager 1 to them is 17/20 of original one.

And if the distance is six light days, the remaining distance is 21/24 or 7/8.

At seven light days up - this is a light week up - the remaining distance would be 25/28.

At one light month up, we are dealing with 117/120 or 39/40.

At one light year up*, it's 1457/1460.

Let the actual size be 1.

One light day up, 1/1 compares to 1:1/4 = > 1/1 compares to 4/1.

Two light days up, 1/1 compares to 1:5/8 = > 1/1 compares to 8/5.

Three light days, 1/1 compares to 4/3.

Four light days, 1/1 compares to 16/13.

Five light days, 1/1 compares to 20/17.

Six light days, 1/1 compares to 8/7.

Seven light days, 1/1 compares to 28/25.

One light month or thirty light days up, 1/1 compares to 40/39.

One light year up, or 365 light days up, 1/1 compares to 1460/1457.

At some point, the change from earth would be so far imperceptible. As far as I know, we have not heard that Voyager has been observing "actual stars" (fix stars in the older terminology) change apparent size. Either they are so high up the change is imperceptible, or the instruments are so reduced in function they cannot detect and transmit the change, or NASA is hiding something.

Supposing NASA is honest and supposing instruments can detect changes in apparent size or in angles between stars, and supposing instruments have not been unintentionally reset in order to adapt when one thought it was a bug, and of course supposing there has been no news I missed on stars changing apparent size, then Voyager 1 would prove the distance to the fix stars is such that the change in distance causes only an imperceptible change in apparent size.

This does not mean they were higher up than 1 light day back on day IV, there is a Bible verse about God stretching out the heavens, like a scroll, and if my hunch on the work of day II is correct - "waters above the firmament" are H₂ and on first 40 days of Flood in 2242 Anno Mundi this layer of H₂ was pushed down to mix with high layers of O₂ to form water, that stretching out would also have as a result thinning out the H₂ so as to make a new 40 days rain like that impossible.
