>>4039898Size is dependent on the context. You can't just decide that area/volume determines size when the shape transforms completely differently as it's dimensions are under the effect of the same multiplier. It's highly subjective when a container's contents can be compressed like gas or let's say the area from which digital pixels are sampled. A cubic meter of oxygen can be distributed across such a wide array of container sizes that it's clear area/volume is a poor way of determining size and container dimensions are a far more efficient method. Dimensions are the standard for determining general size of things across multiple industries for a reason. Will the new couch you ordered fit in your living room? It's 1.3 cubic meters.
