I do understand that the enlargement will not match the original steps, but
as mentioned in my original posting, the thing that perplexed me the most
is
that going from the supposabably lightest step to the darkest step, the
enlargement actually goes from light to dark, then **lighter**, then dark
again.

Film, when it receives exposure beyond a certain point, will reverse, cf
reversal films. If you were to reduce the exposure but increase your
development you would be more likely to get closer your objective with the
Arista. but it would be better to try the FP4.
