In the same spirit: I laughed at this and upvoted it, but I don't know what the square cube law is or what it has to do with mechs. I don't really understand the joke and I'm honestly a fraud for upvoting it and engaging with it, at all.
The square-cube law is the rule saying that if you increase something's size, its volume will also increase proportionally.
Ie: if you have a 1x1x1 cube it's volume is 1, but if you have a 2x2x2 cube it's volume is 8.
With mech design, making a huge bipedal robot means putting a massive amount of weight on relatively weak joints at the legs.
I appreciate the time spent writing that, that was a really cool read :) love reading takes from people who have put a lot of thought into niche topics.
