  • Switch all protons and neutrons of the universe
  • Set PI = 3

Pi can be equal to whatever you want, as long as you’re using a number base that accounts for it. Pi is only an irrational number because base-10 is a rational base. You could create a number base that sets pi equal to 1, if you wanted.

Who says pi has to be a constant at all?

Go ahead and sign up for a non-euclidean geometry course. Constant pi assumes flat geometry, and I'm ok with that.
