This comment doesn't actually answer OP's aeronautics engineering question at scales of human life and plane manufacturing.
Who’s talking about scales of human life? He wanted to know if one could just keep scaling planes and what that would require, and since no else had said anything I gave what answer I could which did contain some helpful information on that subject.
No, he didn't. Nobody is talking about scaling airplanes down to atomic or up to galactic scales. There's an actual answer to OP's question, which an aeronautical engineer could factually answer. You gave a worthless, 'I am very smart' non-answer and now double down as if OP was asking about some platonic ideal rather than a genuine engineering question.
Damn, somebody’s having a shit day, huh? You know this kind of negativity isn’t good for you, right?
