What If The Pyramid's Ramp Was A Spiral?

Did you know the Great Pyramid's four sides only differ by about 58mm? The archaeologist Flinders Petrie surveyed the base in 1880 and the figures have barely changed since then. Each side runs about 230 m and the corners are almost a perfect 90 degree angle. But, the Egyptians weren't working in degrees. They used a ratio called a seked: the number of palms you place horizontally for every cubit (45-55 cm) you go up. Khufu's pyramid is 5 ½ seked which is about 51 degrees. It has to be the same on all four faces from the bottom course to the apex or else the edges never meet. So, if you have to keep checking the edges as you build to make sure all edges meet at the apex, wouldn’t a spiraling ramp block your view as you build higher?
