Your response tells me you're somehow missing the point. Sort of reminds me of a funny joke I heard a long time ago. I don't know original source, but I found this joke, in many similar iterations, across many forums online:
--------------------
A farmer asks an engineer, a physicist and a mathematician to build the most efficient fence around his flock of sheep.
The engineer builds a square fence around the sheep and says "That's the best I can do".
The physicist builds a circular fence, then says "That's the best I can do".
The mathematician smirks and takes a meter-long length of fence, wraps it around himself and declares triumphantly "I define myself to be outside!"
