With the magnet rotated to the opposite side of the neck (opposite from the earlier photo), the picture is bright, even with the focus coil made perpendicular as it should be. (Maybe I unknowingly reversed it the other way, too. I didn't mark anything before, and the trap looks identical both ways.)
The trap has to be all the way back to the tube base. Any farther forward, and there's no picture.
Anyhow, now the coil isn't cockeyed and I can get good focus closer to the midpoint of the focus control's travel. Maybe I'll call this good enough.
An additional nit I didn't mention before is that there is slight horizontal "trailing" in high contrast lines. If you look at the very first picture in this thread, it's especially obvious in the E in PAUSE. Horizontal lock is very stable, and moving the horiz hold control doesn't affect this.
I tried the width adjustment again, but still no joy there.

Angled as in cut at an angle or the gun pointing at an angle or... It sounds like whatever it is that it needs a trap. This might help explain the adjustment. You have a single field trap.

I noticed the trailing earlier but I thought it was a tape source causing it. Those kind of problems I hate having to solve. It might be a DC restorer issue. Do they give adjustment info for that section?
