If you squint hard enough, the capital letter pi (Π) looks like half a circle.

Maybe this is why pi was chosen for half of the circumference of a circle.

I gotta squint pretty hard lol

What is this Cunningham’s law?

Pi is not half the circumference. It’s how many times the diameter fits into the circumference.

It is half of the circumference, multiplied by the radius, of course.

I can level up with more sources (stanford).

The circumference is 2piradius, which obviously meas half the circumference is piradius.

That’s not half the circumference then is it???

Now you’re just being silly.

If you don’t squint, it looks like a table. Maybe whoever chose it hadn’t had lunch yet.

[insert pie joke here]
