Considering that it is Dr Svet that has provided the AR specs I highly doubt he rounded up that number.

I was mainly just trying to emphasize the 1.66:1 aspect ratio, as that's a standard ratio and what the IMBD lists as the OAR for this title. A 1.70:1 ratio is unusual--and other sites listing this particular 2017 release have it at 1.66:1--but if Dr. Svet measures it out that way, I don't doubt it's accurate! I actually use this site more than any other as the standard, given how film specs are often listed so variably all over the Internet.
