Was just yanking your chain a bit. Actually I do appreciate the objective approach you bring to identifying old ballplayers. I took two or three air photo courses myself in conjunction with my Surveying Engineering degree many moons ago. Scale, photo tilt etc and the quantifying thereof are not just abstractions from left field to me, and I am definitely not one of your naysayers. Even so, I based my id'ing of the Yanks and Reds on quick glances at baseball cards, i.e., the subjective approach, and thereby reserve the right to be wrong.
