Ok but this one just seems like its trying to make it a fun little way or thinking about it for kids and grownups alike. I don't see anything wrong with that, along with a lot of the other ones (not the washing machine one that one is stupid) but the social distancing ones seem fine to me

I'm told two things instantly by this. It's small and it's dense. Most people can only visualize in pictures. It's how we're wired. Math is clumsy to the human brain, so why not compare it with images in your head which we use our senses instead of doing that math in our brain.

I thought they would have used football fields or the Status of Liberty for comparison
