    Now I’m curious on how the correlation actually lies, because it seems like it’s actually correlated. When people can’t enter, money is usually restricted too and vice versa, just like Russia is now. Of course there is smuggling, but it’s for both money and people. Although maybe it shouldn’t be money but “trade” in general.

    Area is just hard to discern. Manipulating the radius a little bit will alter area quite significantly (because its quadratic) but you won’t be able to perceive it. By comparison, height is much easier to see. So you can decrease the radius a bit and add height some and you can fool people.

    When I was learning English I feel very stupid questioning why English people says “I’m very sorry”. That I lack a critical knowledge that it’s normal and it means that someone also feel sorrow.

    It’s very liberating knowing that even native speaker are also confused and questioning that same phrase.
