The great gift of language is that it allows us to talk about arbitrarily complex things using a stream-like medium. Human speech is fundamentally 1D. The tree like structure of the concepts in language then facilitates the exponential growth in complexity.
Or maybe centuries of human progress just went completely in the wrong direction? Unlikely.
Nothing wrong with being silly, of course.
Which is it? A number can't be small and large at the same time.
