You can't fit 25 squares into a square 4.675x bigger unless you make them smaller. Yes, that will increase the volume available for syrup.

Literally already addressed that, but go off

You raised the packing coefficient by ⅝ to squeeze one extra square in with all that wasted space, so don't argue that 25 squares has a packing coefficient of 5. Another ⅜ will get you an extra 8 squares, and no wasted space.
