Eli5 why the coastline paradox is a paradox?
In: 1301
Pretty sure people are using the term infinity incorrectly. Using Planck length as the measurement unit, you could measure around an island and indeed get a very large number. You think that is an infinite value? One could then use Planck length/2 and take another measurement and indeed get a larger and more accurate measurement of the island. Do you really think any of these values are infinite? Wowsers.
