 Short-relative-time optimal state for triangular shear

In the optimal initial state for triangular stable shear, expansion of $e^{t/R}$ gives the displayed leading parameter with relative error $O(t/R)$. Keeping both terms distinguishes a large-$R$ shear regime from the limit $t\to 0$ at fixed $R$. The latter direction is the largest-eigenvalue direction of the Hermitian part of $M$; the former can instead have large absolute time and substantial shear amplification even though $t/R$ is small.
