The precision hierarchy in all its glory! Engineers round √3 to 2 because who needs decimal points when you're building bridges? Statisticians settle for 1.7 because significant figures are just suggestions. Physicists flex with 1.73205, showing off their calculator skills. But then... the mathematician swoops in with the mic drop: "√3 is 31/2" – technically perfect, utterly useless for practical calculations, and guaranteed to make everyone else at the conference table groan. It's the mathematical equivalent of correcting someone's grammar during an argument.
