I knew it's wrong because I had made the same mistake in my previous research.
It's bigger, simply because it uses some smaller distance to calculate the radians.
The correct one is:
<math>\theta = \int_0^{t_1} \frac{v_{lateral}}{d_{initial} + v_{retreat} t}dt</math>
Note that <math>d_{initial} + v_{retreat} t</math> is bigger than (his) <math>(v_{bullet} - v_{retreat})t_1</math> almost all of the time, as <math>d_{initial} =
(v_{bullet} - v_{retreat})t_1</math>. Therefore his integral (<math>\theta = \int_0^{t_1} \frac{v_{lateral}}{(v_{bullet} - v_{retreat})t_1}dt = \frac{v_{lateral}}{v_{bullet} - v_{retreat}}</math>) is bigger.
