We used to joke in 2010s: what is Internet Explorer? It's a program that is used to download a browser.

Nowadays, what is Mozilla Firefox? It's a repository you fork to make a browser.

    Firefox forks have dozens of users! Dozens!

    Yes but dozens of forks with dozens of users is still dozens.

    Any number is a number of dozens if you think about it

    This sounds pedantic, but honestly I just think the language of it is very interesting:

    Any number can be dozens, except 1 or -1.

    0 dozens, Pi dozens, 4.5 dozens, 1 dozen.

    And now the word dozen has lost all visual meaning to me.
