Your use of the term "exact dates" appears to divulge a misunderstanding of precision and accuracy. Sorry, but nothing outside of pure math is exact. Once actual data are introduced into math, so are inaccuracy and imprecision. It's part of the baggage that data bring with them.

My demonstration here that the SSB period is precisely 1/12 of the precessional sign period of 2147 years provides a quantitative basis to study this diagram as an empirical model of the structure of time. |
"precisely 1/12" to how many places? If it's less than an ∞ number of places, then it's not "precisely".
Throwing around terms like "exact", "precisely", etc., may impress those who aren't that well-versed in science and statistics, but for those of us who are, well, better luck next time.
It might help to revisit the scientific method. Determining a conclusion and then making sure the data support that conclusion isn't how it works. Just the opposite in fact. Any experiment where the data exactly match the preconcluded results indicates that the data have been "massaged" a bit here and there.
On the other hand the scientific method isn't used by practitioners of astrology and numerology for obvious reasons.
