Yeah, glad they address the scaling thing. My initial thought with jumping is that, you can't have your cake and eat it too, in regards to physics.

Either you scale down in a way that works with physics, and die instantly. Or you scale down 'magically', and imo you don't get to reap the benefits of stuff like 'extra' strength and other square-cube-law changes. (though, I guess if you are just saying 'it's magic', you can come up with any number of justifications for keeping that stuff)

Yea, glad I wasted 7 minutes on that nonsense, and glad I never applied at Google. If you're saying I'm shrunk, we're already in Imaginary World, so I'm gonna make stuff up too.

Anymore if I get asked stupid questions like this I say it's not a good question, and to ask a real one. Interviewers aren't used to such responses.

And I also don't do STAR type interviews. When they start in on them, I tell them how useless they are, and pull out several sheets of printed questions and answers.
