Yes. Since it doesn't have the U part of the LQR controller, it isn't provably stable, and I've seen ones which aren't...

Good catch. It worked, so we stopped?

I'd like to revisit that math this summer. It doesn't always return an answer which converges, which suggests to me that something is wrong with it.
