@Duchess64 It was all a conspiracy to propagate the knowledge of Fibonacci numbers. It was done in secret meeting in wall street and in the queen's palace. They kind of screwed it up however, not totally accurate between kilometers and miles, which was put down to miscommunications between the queen's mathematicians and Wall street math guru's.
Something that only a few people have noticed is that in recent years, the ratio between a kilometer and a mile has more and more closely approximated Phi, but such observations are usually dismissed as the loony conspiracy theories of Mandela-effect ravers.

Are kilometres getting bigger or miles getting smaller? 😉
Dear yet sometimes (often?) deplorable Duchess, that is interesting information, but I wish you had taken the time to deal with the line breaks, which would have been the respectful thing to do.
You might be surprised how many lying racist trolls are aware of their blindered education and are keenly interested in the history of scientific and philosophical developments all around the globe.
@blood-on-the-trackssaid I believe that Fibonnacci numbers will eventually give 'the golden ratio', which happens to be 1.6ish
I somehow landed on that about 40 years ago when I was a young painter (at the time, I also tried mapping the optical-complement color wheel against the 12-tone musical scale -- I think Newton did something similar, much earlier).
