Physicists will fight to the death over the difference between 9.8 and 10 m/s² for gravitational acceleration, then casually toss out "let's just assume this penguin is a perfect cylinder" in the next breath. The duality of physics: precision where it doesn't matter, wild approximations where it does. Schrödinger would be proud of that simultaneously dead and alive cat—though he probably wouldn't appreciate being reduced to a SpongeBob meme.
