    It’s in the quote that they scaled it.

    Yes but they supposedly scaled it to “one meter per meter”. A “scale where the distance from the Sun to Earth is 150 million km” is the actual distance.

      lol I did miss that, but it was enough to make it not a guess that its source was scaling for comparison.

      My whole point was the same as your OP, though. A condom that’s 95% effective isn’t worth shit. You can’t let a toy without reading comprehension do your reading for you.
