You know this by yourself or you read it from some others. What the heck 
is a "retroreflector" anyway? Can a reflector reflects not retro? I 
thought it must be about some perfect mirrors. (close to perfect), in 
order to reflect back the most of that speckle. In any case, the 
integration of the strength over that area MUST be LESS than the strength 
of the emitted.

You need to learn a lot about light scattering science, my friend.
