The precision of our manufacturing capabilities might be limited as QM has this discreete nature. It might be limited in this universe. So pi may only exist theoretically
But you could make that same argument for a lot of fractions. 1/3 doesn’t exist because you cannot divide a quantum in three. 0.333 repeating means that eventually you have to divide an indivisible foundational particle in thirds.
Right, but you can have exactly a third of some group of particles. You can’t have exactly pi of some group of particles I think is what they were saying
The other guy said good about one out of three known particles. That’s what make it rational!
The problem is that something that doesn’t exist in our universe or reality doesn’t disprove anything in mathematics. Mathematics is abstract. It is rules built up on rules. It does not care about reality or anything

If you have three particles, 1/3 of that is one particle. No need to divide an indivisible particle.
But if I don’t have three particles, 1/3 requires division.
