Abstract: There are few absolutes to be found in the channels of commerce. Seemingly, the attainment of perfection is a subject more fitting philosophic discussion. Commerce can only contend with that which is achievable, economic and practical, within keeping of the value of a commodity in trade. This thought is amply demonstrated in drafting rooms and machine shops, where dimensions are coupled with attainable tolerances. Few would attempt to duplicate exactly that length of platinum which is buried in a French vault, an exercise that would prove to be impractical if not impossible. The meter serves its purpose as a point of reference from which tolerances are allowed to arise.
