    It seems to me that the concept the ratio of the circumference of a circle to the radius is a finite value. It’s cool that it turns out to be an irrational number for us but I think that’s more a statement of how we handle math than some mystical thing.

      So, it would be “fixed” if we based or math around these numbers? Like, a new numeral system where 3 = pi?
