Sorry, I disagree.

We are talking about PI, not arugula and the price of tea per pound.

You must be an accountant, not n engineer.

If we (collectively) dealt with math as you suggest, we would all still be dreaming of the day we could put a man on the moon.

Sorry, I’m an engineer, and I have (helped) put payloads in orbit. So my math works just fine, thank you.

I’m just trying to explain how an ancient civilization with no concept of fractions may have seen an approximation of pi.
