Help converting eDPI to regular desktop DPI

[letsgobando]

I want to be able to work on my muscle memory used in aiming in Rainbow Six Siege even when doing other things on my computer,  because when I went to play after a while doing something else I realized I'm overaiming everything. So I entered my settings in Siege into the converter, and it says that to match the eDPI in Siege to desktop/windows I should use 250 DPI. The problem is, when looking at the math, things aren't adding up. It says HFOV is 106 degrees, and that the distance to do a full 360 is 18.19 inches. Because 360 divided by 106 is 3.396, that means that you should be able to rotate right 3.4 full "fields of view" (from the right edge of the screen to the left) before going back into the original position. However, it also says that the distance to move the mouse cursor across the screen is 7.68 inches. This should mean that in game the distance needed to travel one "field of view" is 7.68 inches. This should mean that to do a full 360, we need to move the mouse right 3.4 * 7.68 inches, so it should be about 26.112 inches, way higher than the 18.19 inches we are told is needed to do a 360 in game. This is confusing me and I'm not sure where the settings might be wrong or why its not adding up. The ADS sens doesn't even matter, just hipfire. To summarize, to 360 in game the distance is 18 inches, to move cursor in windows across screen its 7.7 inches, this is inconsistent with a HFOV of 106 degrees in game.
