Thank you for the analysis.
However, I believe the correct proportion of free CO2 in the atmosphere is 0.36%, not 3.6%.

The number I cited was the percentage of CO2's contribution to the earth atmosphere's total greenhouse effect, not the percentage of the gas in the atmosphere.

In that formula, 98% of the atmosphere, which is nitrogen and oxygen, doesn't count because they have no greenhouse effect.
