Engineers and physicists have been locked in this battle since time immemorial. Top panel shows the mathematical purist with the never-ending decimal expansion of π (3.1415926...). Bottom panel reveals the engineer in a tuxedo, confidently rounding π to 80 because who needs precision when you can just slap on a safety factor of 25? Next time your bridge collapses, remember it was "close enough for engineering work."
