    I think it's because no matter how many corners you cut it's still an approximation of the circumference area. There's just an infinite amount of corners that sticks out

    It's a fractal problem, even if you repeat the cutting until infinite, there are still a roughness with little triangles which you must add to Pi, there are no difference between image 4 and 5, the triangles are still there, smaller but more. But it's a nice illusion.
