Personally I don’t trust much of anything sam says, so I’d take any framing with a large grain of salt

You mean a lump of salt? I've always wondered what the right word is to describe this amount of salt /!jk

I've been offered a "lump" of sugar before, and it was not a single sugar crystal. When I hear "large grain of salt" I imagine something like this https://crystalverse.com/sodium-chloride-crystals/, quite different than a lump.

I usually use "a few bags of salt" to imply that I don't trust the source.

perhaps a "mountain of salt" in this case?

That is absolutely brillant and will make a fantastic week-long father-daughter science project. Thanks.

Now back to figuring out something new for a 6-year old to program using Scratch...
