    A straw has 1 hole that goes all the way through.

      So, infinite holes. Just like a line has infinite points. And, a longer straw has a bigger infinite number of holes.

      The disk has two holes separated by a lesser distance

        Not if it’s 2D

          Holes are arguably 0D.

            Idk if you can measure what area a hole takes up it has dimensions doesn’t it?

              I’m being tongue in cheek of course and this is more a matter of philosophy and ontology than math and physics, but one could claim that the hole itself does not exist, it is the absence of matter, so what you are measuring is not the hole but rather the distance between any two points of matter. Otherwise one could point to nothing and claim that it is a hole of any size (like pointing to the sky and simply defining some part of it a hole of a certain size- it would effectively be a meaningless proposition in some sense).

              But again, it is truly just silly semantics. :)

              But can you measure something that doesn’t exist? Can the absence of something be something in and of itself? Is it the hole you are measuring, or the object around the hole?

                No but a void exists as defined by the matter around it

                Yes we just did this

                Both

                Philosophy is easy

          Sure but THIS hole isn’t 2D because it’s a compressed 3d object.
