Is Pi more than just a ratio for circles? Is there a easy way to understand the universality of Pi?

“go straight, turn left, go straight, turn left, and repeat” the ratio between how much to go straight and turn is half of pi. And because the ratio of going straight and turning appears in a lot of equations pi appears in a lot of equations.

If you were to “go straight, turn left, go straight, turn right, and repeat” that’s parabolic, which also shows up a lot.
