That phrasing is about computer or math 'models' and the parameters that the model is based on - Given this scenario of a simplified for math, 'non-rotating flat-earth', >> here is the model, >> now how close does it reflect reality? >>How 'valid' is it for use in the real world, with real world physics?
Or gently guide others off?
We tell those flat-brainers that "The edge is 36,338 miles that'a way, just start walking, you can't miss it."
Agreed!
Brilliant!
