Can't fault someone for trying to convert digital information into something tangible to visualize it better. Unfortunately peoples brains aren't really built to comprehend a newspaper that weighs almost as much as the moon. (rough estimate I pulled out my ass)
If this were my grandma, then sure, I wouldn’t fault her. But if it’s someone making life-altering decisions based on their understanding of it, someone who has been doing so for a very long time, and who has support staff who ostensibly try to make sure that person understands the topic at hand, and yet after all these years of hearing about tech-related topics and deciding on them, the person — who has every ability to retire if the world is moving too fast for them to keep up, but has opted not to — asks a question as absurd as this… I actually am going to fault that person.
