If the squares are half the size, you get 4x the number of squares, assuming you're measuring side length and not area.
Oh hey sorry I didn't know you went to school for this shit. Fine. you make the waffles.
I should put "Bachelor's in Waffleology" on my resume
Dr. Waffleologist!
Keep it up and you'll be the next Waffle King!
One square is the optimal waffle if you’re optimizing for syrup volume alone.
I will put you to work testing this theory.
Proceed with waffle preparation and delivery, I'll be waiting, and will provide my own syrup. Please note all waffles are to be gluten-free, as my body hates me and the things I enjoy.
If you serve the syrup in a cup, then the syrup to waffle ratio is infinite.
Why even have a waffle at all, let's drink the syrup!
I post this comment quite often, but a number divided by zero is not infinity, so the syrup to waffle ratio would actually be undefined.
Fine, as the quantity of waffle approaches zero, the syrup to waffle ratio approaches infinity.
This tracks because I'm always left with syrup on my plate after finishing the waffle. So I've independently verified your hypothesis.
