It can be useful in general, but it is hard to provide the type of tolerances expressed in physical units you’d expect in an engineered solution when all the constants are ignored.

I'm not sure what you mean. Sounds a bit like you might be misunderstanding what were talking about.

It is a bit rude to become confused and then assume the other person was the one with the misunderstanding.

I'm just curious about what you're talking about. Tolerances and physical units are not usually mentioned in relation to time/space complexity. I'm open to the idea that you may know something I don't, feel free to enlighten me.
