I understand that with a wideangle a discrepancy would cause the lens to be
focused at a closer distance than with a longer focal length. My point is
that at the same f stop both images of an object at infinity would be
equally fuzzy.  Do you agree? I guess that when you are doing these tests
you are determining the distance of optimal sharpness. Then I can understand
that if the distance is closer with a WA it is easier to identify.
