It's self-obvious the circles don't exist. At Planck lengths, the resolution breaks down and all you can get is straight lines.

Or something.

At Planck lengths, lines have no meaning.

Well, yeah ... if you build your circles out of planks.

Getting straight lines means you walk the Planck.

I'd go with tiny little segments approaching one point in length. Amazing that those Greek dudes in togas had it all figured out and gave us "pi".

People who see the world in patterns are not all that rare. It's cool that a concussion could charge up those batteries and have a person see the world as it is.
