: 5/ Could the stripes have been used to measure out something?
: This would imply a regular spacing of all the stripes. As I don't see this feature I would also reject this possibility.
This reasoning is not sufficient. In fact, the philosophy of measurement in science today is based on the comparison and the comparisons are not based on regular distributions. If it were based on regularity, we wouldn't have been able to measure anything in the life. If I remind the projections of "periods" onto the surfaces, it may make some sense? Projections of what? To me, it seems to be of colors.
