I didn’t fully understood the joke, my only understanding of episilon comes epsilon-delta proofs… I forgot that epsilon in that context measures the certainty of the “Infinitesimal” displacement in x. So when epsilon is really large everyone looses their shit as if the world’s going to collapse into a black hole. 😂
Nah, the only bound epsilon has is that it has to be greater than 0, so it can a actually be as large as you want. After all, we prove limits for all epsilon. When dealing with limits, the funky stuff tends to happen when epsilon is small, so that’s why we visualize epsilon to be small.
