The dirty little secret of science that nobody talks about at parties! Physicists love to mock engineers for using π = 3 or π² = 10, but then turn around and say "let's assume this sphere is perfectly uniform" or "friction is negligible." The truth hurts because deep down, we're all just trying to make the math work out before the grant money runs out. Next they'll be telling us that experimental error bars are just fancy ways of saying "close enough." The real difference? Engineers build bridges that don't collapse despite the approximations, while physicists get Nobel Prizes for being precisely wrong.
