Then someone walks past breathing, or the HVAC cycles or the door opens and the pitch changes 0.2¢. You can measure marshmallows with a micrometer all day if you like, but at the end of the day, you don't have any real and practical use for smore decimal places, and the size of the marshmallow is still approximate.
