And if you measure it in miles of coastline...
Mexico - 1,743 miles.
US - 1,680 miles.

Other sites round up the US portion to an even 1,700, which is STILL short(!)
Does this fully take into account Louisiana? I feel like those river deltas and swamplands add up to a massive amount of what could be considered coastline.
That's a whole other can of worms:
The coastline paradox
If they’re both infinite that’s just 50/50 right?
More like ♾️/♾️, so closer to 1.
Isn't 50/50 = 1 = ♾️ / ♾️?
🤯
I'm fairly certain that's not how it works 🤣
Could be part of the "rounding up", same for the Florida Keys.
