SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the optical behavior of two triangular prisms placed side by side without inversion. It concludes that this arrangement does not produce a wider spectrum of light than a single prism. While the angles between colors may change, the interaction of light with multiple surfaces leads to a complex and less distinct outcome, rather than enhancing the spectrum.
