“contradicts”
Large vs small.
The small part is the radius. The large is the mass and volume. Why? because it’s compact.
E.g. a 5x5 square has an area of 25 sq ft and a perimeter of 20.
Take the same perimeter but squash it to a 9x1 rectangle and you’re down to 9 sq ft.
The square has a larger area because it’s more “compact”.
I’m good with that. ETL nailed it.
You cannot simultaneously be large and small.
