So a homonym of the rodent mole, in this case a mole measurement, is very closely related. I think this means it is not a mole.
Which makes me wonder if the answer is Avogrados constant
You may well be right.
And I could see VA choosing a number
My vote: is it 6.022 × 10²³?
was gonna guess electricity or something
I might have some issues with #2 if it is. I could give it to him for “mole” - man took the number and made it mean something - but for a number itself we’d have to get into the “is math created or discovered” thing.
Given that Mayans invented zero, I’d say numbers are man made
But in this case if the answer is “Avogrados constant” this constant values by this name was man made
Or did they discover it…
If it’s “Avagadro’s Constant”, I think I could give it to him. If it’s 6.022 x 10^23, not as easily. There’s a fine distinction there for me…
It’s man made

20a | soyleche | Is it a mole (unit of measurement)? | Not quite. |
20 | MayanActuary | Is it 6.022 \times 10^{23}? | Technically, no; but I’ll give it to you! |
*But not in the way that you’re likely asking.
A homonym of the “Best Eyes on the Outpost” is very closely related.
Answer: Avogradro’s Number (or Constant)
I wouldn’t have said that the number 6.022\times 10^{23} was man-made; but the label of “Avogadro’s Number” is man-made.
Woohoo!
I’m not sure I can keep up with a game right now so whomever wants can start another one
I can accept that
Good job. That was an interesting one.
I have a couple of ideas, so I’ll start another one if no one else gets it going.
Go for it.
I’ve got a lot going on and don’t want to accidentally abandon y’all if I’m the answerer, and it’s been four hours and no one else has objected, so I say it’s yours.
