The Noun-Verb duality.

Matter or energy,
Wave or particle,
Zermelo-Fraenkel numerals or Church numerals,

You can see something as a being, or as a doing.

Take a coin from your pocket and examine it. It has two sides, and each is different. There still is only one coin.

Sides has no meaning in 3-D. However, a coin, as a cylinder, still only has two faces.

Coins have 3 sides:
Obverse side
Reverse side
Edge side(Coins can be balanced on edges)

Sides != dimensions you moron

Guess you people can't handle EDGE cases.
Like a statistician that thinks coins land on one of two side(heads or tails). Coin in the real world have 3 sides.
They can't comprehend that their perfect abstract "2D coin" can land on edge side. When their software gets one of these edge cases they throw an autistic temper tantrum about how "it not suppose to happen at all".

What >>1 writes is merely a suggestion of what the thread should be about. We don't have to follow it.

Think about it this way.

You can have two pennies in your hand. But you can also jump up and down twice.

Yet, we can still use the concept of the number "two" to relate both of these situations, even though it describes two things in the first case, and two instances of an action in the second.

Isn't that interesting?

This is racist. Some people's languages have no abstract words denoting numbers.
