In simple math, all relationships are linear (i.e., ratios). In reality,
exponential relationships are more common, and more difficult to define.
The concept of log was developed so that one could kind of get exponential
functions to form a straight (sort of) line, when graphed. However, this
left only the natural log and the base ten log for everything to conform to,
and unfortunately, everything did not fall within this boundary. The
universe is exponential in many more ways than it is linear, I would say.
Lets see, the ratio of the volume of the Milky Way Galaxy vs. the number ov
black holes in it compares to the ratio of of my Truck's weight vs its
MPG.
Voilla, a new hypothesis is formed. Who needs calculus, we have ratios!
