I'm going to say something that sounds silly to most people, but isn't it the same deeper reason why a triangle is half of the base times the height?

I don't give a rat's ass if there's a proof or not connecting the two. I'm not a mathematician, but it makes sense from a calculus perspective that the number of dimensions ends up as a divisor.
