Mitchell Porter pointed out some important mistakes, leading to a Physics Stack Exchange discussion that (hopefully) corrected some of my misunderstandings. I misused the word “spinor" thinking it referred to any vector acted on by the matrices associated with a Clifford Algebra. It doesn’t. A spinor is specifically acted on by a particular subset of the Clifford Algebra. I updated my post to not mention spinors and to call them vectors instead.
