“[Wjhether we can say, “with fair assurance, after pondering all that happened without stripping the erroneous action from the whole, that the judgment was not substantially swayed by the error.” The decisive factors are the closeness of the case, the centrality of the issue affected by the error, and the steps taken to mitigate the effects of the error . [Smith v. United States, D.C.App., 315 A.2d 163, 166 , cert. denied sub nom. Jeffries v. United States, 419 U.S. 896 , 95 S.Ct. 174 , 42 L.Ed.2d 139 (1974), quoting from Gaither v.
