If so, does the top arc really indicate this is the optimal shifting point, or just simply give a magnified, easier to view assessment of when you are going out of the "yellow" and into the "red"?
Yes, I think that's the correct way to think about it. The top arc is an expanded view to make it easier to shift right at redline.
