Straw man arguments aside I think you are confusing the peripheral vision of 
the eye with the focal length equivalence of center vision. I think there is 
good evidence that it falls between 50-55mm. In the real world much like Bill I 
find a FL of around 28-35 to be a reasonable facsimile of the way I view the 
world.
