Yes Gary, you do have a absurd result – because your zero-time run violates the conditions for using the EP running fix. Those are that EP1 was the best estimate after LOP1 was acquired, and that the run, from LOP1 to LOP2, has degraded DR2 to have much more uncertainty than the uncertainty in LOP2.
