The Existential Mathematics Of Made-Up Numbers
The mathematical existential crisis is real! This is the numerical equivalent of naming your pet rock—technically, you can do it. In mathematics, we can indeed assign any name to any number (hello, Graham's Number and Googolplex), but "morbillion" exists in that delightful limbo between made-up internet nonsense and legitimate mathematical nomenclature. Since our number system is infinitely extensible, the fictional "morbillion" could theoretically be defined anywhere we want. It's like reserving a username that nobody was competing for but still feeling smug about getting it first. The real mind-blow is realizing our number naming conventions are just as arbitrary as deciding whether a hotdog is a sandwich.
