<<The problem is not the shape of the LFO; it's the response of the delay

be have an exponential response to CV in order to sound "right", simply
because of the way our brains interpret signals. It stands to reason that a
flanger (for example), being a complex filter, should have an exponential
response to control voltages as well. Why don't the designers of these
things put exponential front ends on the clock VCO's, instead of playing
games with the CV generators?>>

I'm not disagreeing with your call for exponential control response for time 
delay effects (in this case, you'd need to make the high-frequency 
voltage-controlled clock have exponential CV response).  I think it's 
probably a dang good idea.  However, it's important to note that Anderton's 
hypertriangle into a linear CV input does not achieve the same sonic result 
as would a normal triangle into an exponential CV input.
