The existence of an exact tuning for a delta signature specification is only guaranteed to hold when we only care about a ratio being ''two'' terms in the delta signature being exact. If we want to optimize an arbitrary specified delta signature (with some deltas possibly held free), we can use a least-squared-error solution instead to minimize the error.
