In fact the twist angle is assumed to be constant from the center of the cylinder out to its circumference.
If we call the twist caused strain at any distance r from the center $ds, \ then\ \theta= \frac{ds}{r} \quad and \ ds=\theta*r$
Shear is $t=G*\epsilon= G*\theta*r \quad \text{or y in your equation}= G*yr$

Now rotate one disk by a few degrees. Are all points on the lines the same distance apart? Have the lines drawn further apart at the center of the disks, or at the edges?
